When parents of many newborn babies choose baby milestone blankets for their babies, they will find it difficult to face two-layer gauze blankets, four-layer gauze blankets, or six-layer gauze blankets. They will have selection phobia and don’t know what gauze blankets to choose for their babies. Let’s explain in detail!
What is the difference between pure cotton four layer gauze and pure cotton six layer gauze? The four layer gauze is thinner than the six layer gauze, which is suitable for different seasons. The pure cotton four layer gauze is suitable for spring and autumn, and the pure cotton six layer gauze is suitable for winter. The air compartment is better and has good warmth retention. So novice parents will be in trouble? How to choose? In fact, the baby milestone blanket can be divided into many different types according to the number of layers. The common ones are two layers, three layers, four layers and six layers. How many layers are better for the baby’s milestone blanket? The following is our explanation of several layers of baby milestone blanket:
1. Two layer baby milestone blanket
The blanket made of two layers of pure cotton gauze inside and outside is generally about 0.5mm thick. This blanket is usually suitable for indoor use in summer, late spring and early autumn, and the air conditioning temperature is 28 ℃ or natural temperature.
The advantage of two-layer baby milestone blanket is that it has only two-layer structure, with high air permeability and light weight. It can be easily dried in rainy weather, and the price is cheap and close to the people; The disadvantage is that the yarn count is slightly thicker each time, which is inferior to more layers of gauze blanket in durability and softness.
2. Three layer baby milestone blanket
There are three layers of gauze structure: inner, outer and middle. The general thickness is about 0.6mm. For one layer alone, it is thinner than that of two layers of gauze. It is mainly suitable for summer, late spring and early autumn. The temperature of air-conditioned room is about 26 ℃, or it is used at the natural temperature of cool summer night.
The price, durability, air permeability, softness and other indicators of the three-layer gauze blanket are balanced, with no obvious shortcomings and no too prominent priority. Compared with the two-layer gauze blanket, the gauze quality of each layer is better and finer, which is more suitable for people with sensitive skin. The wear resistance is higher than that of the two-layer gauze blanket, and the cost performance is higher.
3. Four layer baby milestone blanket
The blanket made of four layers of gauze has not only increased the number of layers, but also finer workmanship. The overall thickness is 076mm. It is suitable for natural room temperature in spring and autumn, and the air conditioning temperature in summer is about 25 ℃.
The wear resistance and durability of the four-layer gauze blanket will be better, not easy to deform and softer. The price is similar to that of the three-layer gauze towel quilt, with high cost performance; The disadvantage is that it’s too hot in summer. It’s still a little hot if you don’t turn on the air conditioner.
4. Six layer baby milestone blanket
The gauze blanket with six layer structure is a good gauze blanket. The overall height is about 10mm. Because it needs to be woven thin enough, the requirements for cotton yarn are relatively high. The six layer gauze blanket can be used from early spring to late autumn. The natural room temperature is 15-25 ℃, and the air conditioning room temperature in summer is recommended to be 20-25 ℃.
The six layer gauze towel is delicate, holy and soft, with good quality. The main disadvantage is that the price is a little expensive.
Then some novice parents will have a question. That’s why we choose a gauze blanket for our baby? Can’t you change to another blanket? Then we won’t have choice phobia!
Let’s analyze why we choose gauze blanket:
Starting from the characteristics of gauze material:
The heat storage capacity of gauze is strong. After the pure cotton fiber is exposed to the sun, the fiber recovers and elongates, the heat storage capacity is large, the thickness of quilt increases, and the heat storage capacity is good when it is covered at night. Moreover, there is no static electricity. Cotton is pure cotton plant fiber, which will not produce static electricity, breed bacteria and affect the skin. Can promote sleep. Cotton comes from nature, and the material of pure cotton is softer and more comfortable.
Starting from the taste of gauze:
The smell of gauze is natural and fresh. Pure cotton gauze is a natural green environmental protection product without any chemical additives. It can be used safely without worrying about whether the baby will be allergic.
Here are some of our experiences in taking care of babies for your reference:
How to judge whether a child is cold or hot?
1. Touch hands and feet: if the baby’s hands and feet feel cooler or not cooler than the adult’s hands, it means that the baby’s clothes are thin and thick.
2. Touch the back neck: the child’s back neck can often reflect the average temperature of the whole body. If the child’s back neck is warm and sweat free, the child’s dressing thickness is OK.
3. Touch the back: if the child wears too much, his back is easy to sweat. Parents can also judge whether the child wears too much clothes by touching the child’s back.
What are the reasons why children don’t want to cover the quilt?
1. The quilt is thick or not soft, and it is uncomfortable to cover the body. We all know that if the quilt or bed is uncomfortable, you can’t sleep, otherwise there won’t be tens of thousands of mattresses and so on. Similarly, children are the same. If they wear too many clothes and the quilt is too thick, they are easy to sweat. If adults cover him with an uncomfortable quilt, he will kick it open.
2. Too excited before going to bed, or don’t sleep very deep. The child is too excited before going to bed. When it comes to sleep, the cerebral cortex is still in an excited state. Of course, it’s uncomfortable to sleep. There may be too little sleep, a little sound will wake up. Or after urinating at night and waking up completely, he would not like to cover him with a quilt at this time.
3. The temperature in the room is high and the environment is noisy. Sleep environment directly affects sleep quality. Although the child can’t speak, the child’s requirements are high. The light is too bright, the room temperature is too high and the environment is noisy. Changing the bed may cause baby discomfort. Of course, if you feel uncomfortable, you will kick the quilt.
