How to dress a baby?
On the arrival of Baby, clothing is a fundamental question that can cause some hesitation. Tartine et Chocolat has prepared some tips and tricks to help parents find the perfect outfits:
The importance of clothing for infants
It is true that dressing a newborn may seem simple, but there are still some essential rules to follow to ensure maximum comfort and safety. Baby. Indeed, their skin is fragile which is why it requires special attention. Beyond finding what will enhance it, it is fundamental to optimize your well-being as much as possible by taking into account your physiological needs, the seasons and the materials. The most important thing to know here is that the internal temperature of toddlers does not regulate itself as is the case with adults who will tend to adapt to a temperature that is too hot or too cold. Additionally, a Baby cannot express his feelings, which is why it is necessary to be attentive to these different factors. As an indication, the optimal internal temperature of a newborn is between 36.5°C and 37.5°C. And he says that ideally a Baby must be clothedOS one layer more than his parents but it all depends on the seasons. But then, how do you dress a baby during the different seasons?

Rather warm seasons: Spring / Summer
During this more or less hot period that spring and summer involve, it is important to keep as much Baby cool and protect it from the sun's UV rays. Even if the latter can be a source of vitamin C, just like for adults, they can prove to be harmful to health. In doing so, it is preferable to opt for light and comfortable fabrics, particularly cotton or Linen. These materials will respect the skin of Baby and will provide it with sufficient thickness to protect it from the sun without covering it too much. Likewise, the bodies short sleeves as well as bloomers will prove to be excellent choices in the event of extreme heat. In case of light breezes or light rain, a Cardigan or a thicker, waterproof jacket will protect Baby cold. However, it is essential to cover the newborn's head to avoid sunburn.

Wetter and colder seasons: Fall/Winter
During wetter and cooler periods, temperatures fluctuate more. This is why it is preferable to be able to cover and Discover Baby easily. The idea is to be able to add thicknesses depending on temperature drops. If the weather is more rainy than cold, the ideal is to favor a Pajamas, a Jumpsuit, a pretty Cardigan, adorable little ones Slippers and a Beanie. Because this is indeed how body heat is quickly lost in a newborn. If, however, the main objective is to prevent extreme cold, an attractive little Coat or a Onesie will be required. Also, the materials once again have all their importance here. We will tend to set our sights on noble materials such as organic cotton, Velvet, the Wool or even the Cashmere.

With the idea of providing a concrete vision of childcareDress of Baby, Tartine et Chocolat has developed a list of essentials that will accompany Baby throughout the seasons to fall for:
With short or long sleeves, body in soft cotton constitutes a basis in the clothing of Baby. The ideal is to opt for bodies having an opening on the front to avoid passing clothes over your head Baby which is not yet agile enough for that. Likewise, a snap opening at the crotch makes changing easier.
Likewise, the Pajamas is a basic to have in many copies and in many materials in order to cope with any change in temperature. For the sake of practicality, snap openings are once again ideal. The house Tartine et Chocolat imagined a multitude of pieces with Prints iconic colors as well as a wide palette of colors ranging from neutral tones to bold tones. This selection is made available to allow everyone to find what they are looking for.
It’s the practical piece that can be both sober or more fancy. The Prints, patterns and colors used make the room adorable and Baby to chew. It is both comfortable and reassuring thanks to the materials used such as Cashmere or cotton, but also very elegant and trendy. When it comes to dressing, everything is once again simplified thanks to the openings on the front which make changing easier.
In terms of comfort and safety, the Sleeping bag is an essential to absolutely have. It is designed to help regulate the temperature of the Baby. Depending on the thickness, it can adapt to all seasons. Furthermore, beyond allowing Baby not to be too hot or too cold, the Sleeping bag is ideal because unlike traditional blankets, they present no risk of suffocation or strangulation. In fact, the Babys cannot cover their heads with a Sleeping bag which significantly reduces the risks associated with breathing and temperature regulation during sleep. Baby is protected while being free to move his legs freely, which promotes muscle development and mobility while maintaining the Baby comfortably swaddled. It may also help prevent nighttime awakenings caused by Baby who discovers himself.
It is necessary to have something to dress an infant when it is much colder outside. To go out for a walk while keeping Baby warm, the Onesie is the best possible ally in winter. It was designed with the idea of protecting Baby face the elements by covering him from head to toe, in particular thanks to a Hood, mittens or even little ones Slippers integrated. For the sake of optimization, the Onesie do not clutter Baby to the point of having to remove it during a car journey for example. Indeed, the Onesie has also been designed not to represent a risk in terms of road safety. Once again very practical and cute, Tartine et Chocolat took pleasure in creating trendy and comfortable pieces for little ones.
Regardless of the season, it is essential not to forget the extremities of the body, especially the head being the most important part of the body. Baby retaining the least heat. This is why the Beanie is a basic to have whether it is thin or thicker. As temperatures become cooler the Slippers are not obsolete. In addition to being necessary, they come in different materials and colors. Something to crack more easily...
Precautions to take when dressing:
It is true that it is important to be very careful when dressing Baby. Gentleness and caution are required for this fragile little being who needs all the attention possible. Indeed, these few reflexes and habits will make life easier for parents while optimizing the comfort of Baby.
- The first piece of advice would be to organize yourself as much as possible so as to have everything at hand, which will allow you not to be overwhelmed by the situation and to manage it as best as possible. Baby will then quickly be dressedOS a comfortable outfit made from materials that are respectful of your skin.
- To make this process easier, the choice of openings is essential. We prefer openings on the front especially for bodysuits, Pajamas and Jumpsuits. Likewise, always with the aim of making changing easier, it is preferable to opt for openings at the crotch level so as not to have to Discover totally Baby every time. In addition, pressure openings will always be more practical than Buttons. Thanks to this system, it will be unnecessary to pass the garment through the head of the Baby to clothe him. For this reason, Baby will be less likely to injure the neck and head, which remain two very sensitive areas at this age.
- Beyond all this, it is important to remember not to dress Baby in clothes that are too narrow and almost too tight because wanting to bundle him up is a good idea but you must always give him the opportunity to move as he wishes. Letting him move is a good way to promote muscle development.
