What's the right temperature for aircon in a newborn babies room? I hear some people say 18-20, others say 23-25. What temperature do you have your baby sleep in?

We have 28 degrees and we set the air con at 25-26

Between 25-28

If you have a newborn or a very young infant who is dressed in a footed sleepsuit, swaddled or in a sleeping bag, please adjust the temperature down to 18-20C. You may read more here: https://sg.theas

I didn't believe a lot the confinement, but my personal experience can tell you to DON'T blow directly at you! I had it blowing the other direction and, in my opinion, you don't need long sleeves...

Better not

Not necessarily need to wear long shirt and pants in this ridiculous hot weather. Instead of fan blowing straight continuously, you can let it turn. If you feel the "coldness" or "numbness" with t

My baby dislike wiping mouth.

Wipe his mouth

You can let your baby continues sleep through and wipe his mouth twice a day during day time when baby is awake. It's not good to disrupt baby's sleep just to wipe his mouth. Sleep is important for

Yes I would wipe his mouth as prolonged formula milk stains can lead to irritation on baby's skin.

If lo has teeth, then the normal brushing twice a day should be good. I do let my lo drink some water too throughout the day to just rinse off the leftover milk. I think it's actually quite hard to wi
