Down jacket is light and warm, and is the first choice for many people to spend the winter, but it is not recommended to wear down jacket for babies under 3 years old.
Reason 1: Down jacket is easy to cause allergy,
The baby’s immune system is immature, and duck down and goose down filled with down jacket are easy to make the baby allergic, causing skin adverse reactions such as rash, urticaria and pruritus.
In addition, the baby may also have allergic symptoms such as eye itching, nasopharynx itching, cough, chest tightness, asthma, etc.
If the child reaches the age of 3 and still has allergic reactions to fur materials or suffers from allergic rhinitis, asthma and other diseases, it is still not necessary to wear down clothes to the child until the disease is cured.
Reason 2: Wearing down jackets is at risk of [covering the heat],
The baby’s central regulation ability is weaker than that of adults, and the thick down jacket is too warm to dissipate heat. If the baby’s body temperature is too high, it is difficult to adjust it by itself, which may cause [covering heat syndrome].
It is best to wait until the baby is 3 years old, the resistance is stronger and the body function is more fully developed, before wearing down jackets for them.
Can’t wear down jacket, we can wear cotton-padded jacket for the baby, which is also very warm.
