Many parents, whether new or not, don’t know the exact temperature a bath should be for their infant. Dan on Parent Pacifier helps with one-month baby care tips regarding water temperature for your baby’s bathwater and tips to learn if the water is at that correct temperature. The correct temperature is important due to infants not being the same as adults, they can get too cold or too hot much faster.
Ensuring the Correct Temperature
Dan tells us that the correct temperature for an infant bath is between 90 ℉ and 100 ℉. To achieve this temperature it is best to use a thermometer. Any thermometer will work because all that is required is an accurate temperature for the water.
Recommended by Dan is the Aquatopia – Safety Bath Time Audible Thermometer Alarm. Shaped like a turtle, it floats on top of the water. Not only will it tell the temperature it will sound an alarm if the water goes below 90 ℉ or above 100 ℉. Whether using a regular thermometer or going with Dan’s suggestion, this is very helpful one-month baby care tips. What water temperature should be and how to test the water to ensure it’s that temperature is for the safety of an infant.
