What to do if your child likes to kick the quilt

If parents find that their children like to kick off the quilt, they should first understand the reason why the child likes to kick off the quilt. If it is because the indoor temperature is too high, do not cover the child too thickly to avoid causing heat damage to the child. Of course, in general, if a child likes to kick off the quilt, it may be because the child is too active when sleeping. At this time, be sure to cover the quilt well to prevent the child from catching a cold.

What to do if your child likes to kick the quilt

Tip 1: Wrap yourself in a "quilt within a quilt"

Don't expect babies to sleep in a quilt like adults. They can kick the quilt away, so large woolen or cotton quilts are not suitable for babies at all. In view of the baby's tendency to roll over when sleeping, some mothers recommend thin small quilts made of flannel or coral fleece, which are light and warm. The small quilt can be wrapped around the baby, and the baby can roll over a few times in time, and the quilt can still stay on the baby well. If the weather is not very cold, you can cover your baby with two layers of thin quilts. If the weather is very cold, it is best to add a small quilt on top of the thin quilt!

Tip 2: Get a slim-fitting, split-leg, no-foot sleeping bag

Although the "quilt within a quilt" has a certain effect, it is of no use to babies who have a terrible sleeping posture and roll not only left to right but also forward and backward. It is recommended to use a baby sleeping bag at this time! Many mothers have reported that sleeping bags are useless. The reasons are mostly that it is difficult for babies to turn over in sleeping bags, or that babies feel restrained. In fact, it is not that babies do not like sleeping bags, but that they have not chosen a suitable sleeping bag or have not used it correctly. There are many styles of sleeping bags on the market, including split-leg, non-split-leg, colored cotton, pure cotton, thin, thick and various. The editor would like to add that when you buy a sleeping bag, it is best to refer to the following criteria, maybe your baby will like it! 1. Choose a sleeping bag that fits you well: Many sleeping bags indicate that they can be used from 0 to 6 or even 12 years old, but this is obviously unrealistic. The baby's body will change a lot over the years. A baby will definitely not be able to turn over in such a big sleeping bag, nor will he or she be able to like it. It is recommended to buy a sleeping bag that fits you well, and don't choose one that is too loose, just a little loose. 2. Choose a sleeping bag with separated legs: Babies are active, and with their legs bound they obviously cannot move freely or turn over, so it would be better to choose a sleeping bag with separated legs. 3. Choose a soft sleeping bag: It is best to choose one that is as soft as the clothes your baby wears. Your baby will even like to hug the sleeping bag.

Tip 3: Wear a vest or bathrobe

Babies are most afraid of having a cold stomach, so some mothers suggest letting their babies wear a warm vest to sleep in order to better protect their backs and abdomens. However, it is best to choose a style that is soft, close-fitting and not too thick, otherwise it will be inconvenient for the baby to turn over and move. If your baby doesn't like wearing a sleeping bag, you can consider wearing a bathrobe with your baby. The principle is actually similar to a sleeping bag, but it will be closer and more comfortable. Another advantage is that it won't be too hot, because some babies will feel too hot in sleeping bags.
