Описание: Should babies wear hats?
You’ve probably heard advice from all sides
Some say “yes, always,” while others warn against it. So what’s the truth?

In this video, I explain when, why, and how babies should wear hats based on pediatric evidence and newborn physiology.
Hats can help in certain situations, but overusing them may lead to overheating, poor regulation of body temperature, and even interference with bonding.
This is a must-watch if you're a new parent, caregiver, or expecting a baby soon!

What You’ll Learn in This Video:
Why newborns lose heat quickly (especially from their heads)
When to use a hat:
• Right after birth
• During hospital discharge
• In cold or windy weather
• For preterm or low birth weight babies

When not to use a hat:
• Indoors at home
• While sleeping or napping (SIDS risk)
• In warm environments or when baby is overheating

How babies regulate temperature and why overheating is dangerous
Safe hat options: breathable, cotton, well-fitting, not tight, not thick
Real-life examples from pediatric practice: babies in NICUs, hospitals, cold vs. hot climates

Doctor Advice:
Babies don’t need to wear hats all the time. After the first few hours of life, most healthy full-term babies can regulate their body temperature well indoors without a hat. Constant hat use can lead to overheating, interfere with skin-to-skin bonding, and is not recommended during sleep.

Instead, focus on dressing your baby in layers, monitoring their neck and back for temperature, and choosing clothing appropriate for the environment.

Whether you're preparing for your baby's arrival, caring for a preemie, or just want the right information about baby clothes.
