How Cold Is Too Cold for a Baby to Go Outside?

As the days get shorter, in addition to facing freezing temperatures, parents have the extra challenge of coming up with winter activities for their kids—and themselves—during these long, dark, cold months.

Heading outside is such an amazing activity for everyone from newborns through adults—but what about when it’s absolutely freezing? How cold is too cold for a baby? Can you still take your sweet little bundle outdoors?

The answer is: Maybe.

Children, especially babies, are more sensitive to temperature changes than adults. “Because they are less able to regulate their body temperature than adults, children can quickly develop a dangerously low body temperature [i.e., become hypothermic]. Newborn infants are prone to hypothermia [defined as a body temperature of below 95º F], because of their large body surface area, small amount of subcutaneous fat, and decreased ability to shiver,” says The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)

You’re not overreacting by being nervous about taking your infant outside in freezing temps. The good news? There are ways to do it safely.

How to dress your baby for cold weather

To keep warm in the winter, layers are the key—for both babies and adults. But it’s very important not to overheat your baby by putting on too many layers—since overheating is dangerous for babies, too.

The general rule of thumb is that your baby should be dressed in one more layer than you feel comfortable in. If you are happy with one long-sleeve shirt, your baby should probably have a long-sleeve onesie, plus another shirt or light jacket on top.

If you’re going for a stroller walk, dress baby warmly, then add a blanket or stroller cozy to keep them all snuggled up.

When playing outside, in addition to a winter coat and warm pants or snow pants, don’t forget a hat and mittens. The most vulnerable parts of a little body are their chin, nose, ears, fingers and toes.

Remember, car seat safety is of utmost importance, even as you try to keep baby warm. Babies should not wear a winter coat, very thick clothing or blankets under the straps of their car seats—the straps will not cinch tightly enough around the baby if they do, which is unsafe in a crash.

Is 30 degrees too cold for baby? What outside temperature is too cold for baby:

Above freezing: Extreme cold starts to become a factor when the temperature drops below freezing (32º F). You can still go outside, but it should not be for very long.

Well-below freezing: Once temperatures start to drop below 20º F, it’s best to stay inside if you can. Be sure to factor in wind chill when you’re checking the weather—the wind can feel much, much colder, especially on sensitive baby skin.

Indoors: When you’re inside, the ideal temperature for your thermostat to be set at is 68º to 72º. Remember that baby blankets, although super cute for snuggling baby in our arms, are not safe for the crib as they pose a risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). If you’re concerned about baby being cold at night, we recommend sleep sacks.

What to watch out for

Keep a close eye on your baby (we know you always do) when you’re playing outside. According to the Mayo Clinic, if you see any of these symptoms develop, give your pediatrician a call right away (or just call 911):

Symptoms of h

• Shivering (note, young babies don’t shiver!)
• Slurred speech
• Slow, shallow breathing
• Weak pulse
• Clumsiness
• Sleepy or very low energy
• Confusion or memory loss
• Loss of consciousness
• Bright red, cold skin (in babies)

Symptoms of

• Cold skin
• Prickly, pins-and-needle feeling
• Numbness
• Red, white, bluish-white or grayish-yellow skin
• Hard or waxy skin
• Clumsiness and stiffness
• Blistering

• Have an emergency kit in your car in case you break down. Edmunds has a great emergency kit list of things like blankets, flashlights, granola bars and bottled water. You’ll also want to make sure your gas tank is near full and the car’s maintenance is up to date to avoid issues.
• Consider pre-warming your car, but NEVER in a garage—even an open one.
• Protect everyone’s skin with baby-safe lotion or balms.
• Consider using a cool-mist humidifier to keep baby’s air moist at night.

A note from Motherly

You can certainly still take baby outside, it’s just safest to stay aware of the temperature. Dress babies in layers, follow safe carseat guidelines, and watch closely for any signs that baby is too cold. Don’t stay out for too long, and if it’s less than 20º F, avoid going outside at all (a quick walk to a preheated car is okay).

Hang in there, mama. You’re not doing it wrong—this season can be hard. Go into hibernation mode, focus on some real self-care and snuggles, and before you know it, the flowers will be in bloom and you’ll be spending every waking second outside.

A winter walk is a dose of vitamin D and hardening that strengthens the immune system. To make it easy and warm, use the recommendations of the FrutoNyanya brand experts.

Babies and mothers need fresh air. Walking with a newborn in winter helps to improve health and increase activity. Therefore, you need to walk at any time of the year.

When can I start walking

Experts may recommend going for the first walk a few days after discharge from the hospital, but do not forget about some rules: nine0005

• always focus on the health of the child and mother;
• remember that in cold weather walks should be shorter than in summer;
• properly dress the child, taking into account the peculiarities of his thermoregulation, in order to prevent cooling or overheating.

At what temperature can you walk with a child

At the age of up to 3 years, experts recommend walking with a baby up to -15 ° C degrees, and with children over 3 years old, you can go outside even at -20 ° C ^[1] . The younger the child, the greater the risk of hypothermia or frostbite in strong winds and high humidity.

It is important that the baby is dressed according to the weather and is securely covered from gusts of wind, rain or snow. If the baby is still in the stroller, it is better to cover the gap with a special blanket or hood so that cold air does not blow in. If the child is already active, masks or helmets should be used to protect the child's cheeks. It is also necessary to apply a protective baby cream and lip balm according to the instructions. nine0005

What weather is best to stay at home

The weather must be good, without gusty winds, rain or severe frost. It is advisable to walk with the baby away from busy roads with heavy traffic. If the weather outside is bad or the air is stale, it is better to postpone the walk.

You can “walk” with the child on the balcony. This is a great option to get a dose of sun and fresh air. The higher the floor on which young parents live, the better. At the height of the fifth floor, as a rule, exhaust gases are already dispersed, and street dust does not rise above the 6th–10th floor. If the apartment is located on the 16th floor and above, and the windows do not face a wide avenue, the baby will practically not hear street noise. In this case, “walking” on the balcony or sleeping in a room with an open window is much more beneficial than riding in a stroller in the yard. nine0005

Before leaving the child on the balcony, you need to make sure that objects from the street or upper floors do not fall into the stroller. In order not to miss the time when the child wakes up, use a baby monitor.

How long to walk with a child in winter

How much to walk with a newborn in winter? Long walks with the baby during the winter months are difficult: it must be often applied to the breast and the diaper should be kept dry. For convenience, you can divide the walk into several parts, for example, before lunch and in the late afternoon for 30-40 minutes. nine0005

A one-year-old baby has already formed a sleep and eating regimen, so you need to focus on it. For a walk, the time is right when the baby has slept and eaten, which increases the time in the fresh air.

There are no rules on how much you need to walk with your child in winter. In general, the duration of the walk should rather depend on the strength of the wind, since the baby freezes faster from it. If there is a strong wind outside, it is better to make the walk short, avoid open spaces during it and do not carry the child in a stroller against the wind. In good winter weather, the duration of the walk should be such that it suits both the child and his parents ^[2] .

Whether to walk with the child if he is ill

If the baby feels relatively well and does not have a temperature, it is possible to walk during acute respiratory viral infections, but only after consulting a specialist. Movement and fresh air promote the elimination of phlegm, which can be indicated by frequent wet cough and runny nose ^[3] .

But if the child feels unwell, has a fever, vomiting or diarrhea, it is better to stay at home and consult with a specialist. nine0005

How to dress a child for a walk in winter

The heat exchange of a child differs from the thermoregulation of an adult, so you can’t focus on your own feelings, but you need to use the principle of layering:

• Underwear. A regular set made of natural fabrics can be supplemented with thermal underwear that removes moisture and retains heat.
• Insulation. In severe frosts, a special fleece overall or pants and a sweater made of natural materials with a high neck will do. nine0024
• Outerwear. The younger the child, the warmer the jumpsuit should be. When choosing, pay attention to the density of the insulation. Protection from wind and moisture is also important. To do this, you can choose clothes made of membrane fabric.

Clothing for walking with a child in winter should be made according to the “plus one” rule. It means that, as a rule, a child should have one more layer of clothes than an adult. A tightly “swaddled” child freezes faster, so it is undesirable to wrap the baby tightly, you need to leave room for movement. nine0005

When going for a walk, the adult first gets dressed, and then the baby. So the child will not sweat in anticipation of mom.

How to tell if a child is cold

Babies get cold easily and just as easily overheat, both of which are dangerous. It is difficult to determine whether a newborn is cold, so you can focus on the following signs:

• the child is worried or crying for no reason;
• tries to shrink or curl up. nine0024

For older guys, the temperature of the neck can serve as a marker - if it is cold and wet, it is better to return home or go to the heat. Pale skin, cold nose, hands and feet can also indicate that the child is cold.

Let the winter walks be long and warm, and bring only joy to parents and the baby. In spring, sunny days will increase, which means that you can walk much longer.

How to walk with children in winter?

Enroll

01 May 2021 read 7-10 minutes

Winter walks can be beneficial for the child and be fun, but only if you prepare for them properly. We tell you what to pay attention to when collecting on the street.

Why go out into the cold at all

In winter, I want to stay at home. It's so easy to convince yourself that the child will be cold, he may get sick, but there is no sun and vitamin D, he still won't get it.

“In fact, it’s enough to understand the general idea,” says GMS Clinic pediatrician Emilia Gavrilova, “with a child, you should strive to go outside regularly. But you can not take a walk at all one day, and take a walk several times the next. If the roads are covered with snow, it’s nasty snow and rain, or you just don’t feel like walking, you don’t have to do anything by force, you can sit at home for a couple of days.” nine0005

But winter walks are, first of all, hardening, a change of scenery and new incentives for a child to develop. Cold air clears the nasopharynx from apartment dust. Walking also helps to maintain vision, because on the street the eye muscles are trained when the child looks from a near point to a far one and back.

In winter, it is more difficult to move and more effort is expended due to the increase in weight and the difficulty of moving on the street. Therefore, even simple walking brings more benefits. And physical activity is the basis of a child's health. Children who sit at home for a long time are more likely to be injured, because they have nowhere to put excess energy at home. nine0005

“It is useful for a child, even a toddler, to walk both in summer and in winter,” reminds Emilia Gavrilova. - Even if the child is just lying in a stroller, during a walk he breathes fresh air, the sun's rays fall on him and, while he is awake, he examines the world around him at different distances (of course, if he is not disturbed by a blanket or a raincoat thrown over the stroller) . Walking usually helps parents relax too.”

If a child is sick without a fever, walking will help clear the respiratory tract of viruses faster, and physical activity and fresh air will speed up recovery. Even if the child is only sleeping outside, walking in the cold will still be more beneficial than the same dream, but at home. nine0005

Of course, in a snowstorm or severe frosts it is better to stay at home, especially if the child is very small. Usually, pediatricians do not advise walking with children under one year old if it is colder than -10 degrees outside, and from one to three years up to -15 degrees.

“At the same time, there cannot be any uniform norms,” explains Emilia Gavrilova, “for example, walk up to 0 degrees 40 minutes a day, from 0 to minus 10 - 30 minutes and so on. All these recommendations are artificially invented for convenience. To make a plan for walks in kindergarten or for pediatricians when they need to answer something to their parents on questions about walks. How much it costs to walk with a child in winter depends not only on the air temperature, because the child can be warmly dressed, but also on the strength of the wind. The stronger the wind, the shorter the walk should be. The strong wind waters the eyes, the face becomes weathered and the child freezes faster. If it’s windy outside, avoid open spaces: hills, embankments, bridges, and don’t carry your child facing into the wind.” nine0005

The most difficult thing is for parents of winter newborns, it is difficult to immediately determine when you can go outside with a small child in cold weather.

“If the weather is comfortable, you can walk from the first day and for a long time,” says Emilia Gavrilova. “But the more the air temperature differs from the comfortable one, the more gradually the walks should begin. The baby needs to get used to temperature changes, and parents need to adapt: ​​how to feed and change the diaper in advance, how to dress, how not to miss overheating or hypothermia. nine0005

When walking, the main thing is that the child does not freeze or sweat. Often, inexperienced parents believe that it is necessary to dress the child as warmly as possible in winter, but overheated children can sweat and then freeze because of wet clothes.

“First of all, here you need to focus on age,” says Maria Rudnitskaya, pediatrician at the Fantasy Clinic. - It is quite difficult for a child in the first months of life to determine whether he is cold during a walk or not. But if the child is worried for no reason, takes a forced position to retain the maximum amount of heat, that is, curls up, then one can suspect that he is cold. A whitened nasolabial triangle and the appearance of white spots on the cheeks may also indicate this. In an older baby, we pay attention to the temperature of the limbs and nose. The temperature in the neck area can also serve as a marker. If it is cold and damp, then it is best to take the child to heat. You can also notice by a change in behavior or pallor of the skin. If the skin becomes pale, a wild healthy blush appears, then it is better to take it into the heat. nine0005

How to dress a child

There is a simple principle of three layers:

• Underwear. Toddlers who are not active on a walk can get by with ordinary cotton overalls, while running children are better off choosing thermal underwear - it removes moisture from the body and keeps warm.
• Insulation. It is needed when frosts come or it became clear that without it the child is freezing. The most common option is fleece overalls with a zipper, this material is light, windproof and does not absorb moisture, so even an active child will not freeze in it. nine0024
• Outerwear. The younger the child, the thicker and warmer the jumpsuit should be. It is better to choose modern ones: holofiber, isosoft and others. They tolerate machine washing well, do not roll like synthetic winterizer and do not cause allergies like sheepskin or down.

“The younger the child, the more imperfect his thermoregulation,” says Emilia Gavrilova. “Babies are easily overcooled and also easily overheated, you can’t say what could be more dangerous. Therefore, it is important to find a balance in how to dress a child: nine0005

• first, in the cold season, the baby is put on a layer of clothes more, for example, if the mother put on a T-shirt, jumper and coat, then the child needs to wear a bodysuit, thin overalls, warm overalls and an outdoor envelope.
• gradually parents begin to feel their child. If he is cold, they dress a little warmer, and if he returns from a walk sweaty and red, then it is colder.
• when a child gets older and begins to actively move on the street, they begin to dress him like himself or even colder - it depends on the characteristics of the child. nine0024
• When dressing a small child, make sure that the clothes are not tight so that they cannot squeeze anything.
• first dress yourself up to outerwear, and then dress the child so that he does not overheat while you are dressing.
• if it's cold outside, the less you stop, the better."

When choosing overalls, you need to look at the amount of insulation. Up to 100 grams - demi-season overalls, and from 250 grams overalls are designed for severe cold or sedentary children. nine0005

It is also worth paying attention to whether there are thongs, a snow skirt and how tightly the jumpsuit fastens around the neck and the density of the cuffs. Well, if the coating material is waterproof.

When choosing the right size, do not forget that many manufacturers mark winter clothes +6, that is, such overalls are larger than other standard size clothes. This is necessary so that the child can actively move, there is a small air gap to keep warm and the overalls last until the end of winter. Therefore, you do not need to buy a jumpsuit two sizes larger, a child can drown in it and a walk will not give him pleasure. nine0005

When choosing winter shoes, the main thing is that they are waterproof, warm and comfortable. Therefore, winter membrane boots are a universal option. And for severe frosts, you can take felt boots with rubber soles.

It is better to take shoes one size larger, then you can safely warm your foot with an extra sock or warm insoles. But if you take two sizes more for growth, then the child will not feel the surface of the earth with his foot and may often stumble and fall. This is especially dangerous on stairs and slides. nine0005

How to choose a cold cream

If you plan a walk at temperatures below zero, then it is better to use frost cream. Especially in children under two years of age with delicate skin that is prone to rapid frostbite.

“You need to apply the cream 20-30 minutes before going outside, if there is no water in its composition,” advises Rudnitskaya. - If we are talking about moisturizers, then they need to be applied 40-45 minutes before going out, because the composition includes water and it needs time to evaporate from the skin surface. But it is better for winter to choose some kind of anhydrous nourishing cream, where only oils and waxes will be included in the composition. It's good if the composition does not include alcohol and parabens, but usually manufacturers try not to use all these substances in children's frost creams. nine0005

Also, do not take a cream or hygienic lipstick if it contains glycerin and petroleum jelly, especially if they are in the first or second place in the description. These substances can increase frostbite.

But you should not rely only on a protective cream. If there is a strong wind outside, then it is better to additionally protect your face with a scarf or scarf. It also needs to be washed off after returning home so as not to irritate children's skin.

Children rarely suffer seriously from the cold on a walk, even if it drags on. But this can happen if the child walks in tight shoes or outerwear is not suitable for frost. And a child who has played too much may not immediately notice discomfort and pain.

If, nevertheless, the child complained of pain and cold, or the parents noticed white spots on the skin, then first of all it is necessary to return to warmth. You can’t rub your cheeks or fingers in the cold, as this can damage frozen skin and subcutaneous vessels. nine0005

With first-degree frostbite, there will be pain, redness, and slight swelling of the affected limb. In this case, it is better to warm the child in the bathroom, gradually increasing the temperature from cool to warm. After that, it is worth dressing the child warmly and giving something warm to drink to improve blood circulation.

If blisters, red spots appear on the surface of the skin, and the injured limb is severely swollen, it cannot be warmed with water or in other ways. These are signs of second-degree frostbite and you should seek immediate medical attention. While waiting for help, you can only apply a heat-insulating bandage of several layers: a bandage, cotton wool, a bandage and a film or a plastic bag. It is needed to restore blood circulation and warm the affected area from the inside. nine0005

• Winter walks are good for vision, physical and mental development.
• You can check whether the baby is comfortable on the street by touching the neck. If it is cool, then the child needs to dress warmer, and if it is hot and wet, then cooler.
• The principle of three layers will help you dress your child quickly and according to the weather.
• Winter overalls should be made of modern materials and with the right amount of insulation for winter.
• The best option for winter shoes is membrane boots or felt boots for frost. nine0024
• If you walk at -5 or colder, you must use frost cream in advance.
• In case of mild frostbite, do not rub the skin.
• If blisters and other signs of severe frostbite appear, see a doctor immediately.
