I had no idea that people did this. This sounds expensive.
Just like other people have no idea that we (Scandinavia) let babies sleep outside in a baby carriage wrapped in a tiny sleeping bag. Fresh air is awesome. Cold air is even better.
This works for some babies and is not universal in any way.
- goosejuice 2mo agoAwesome. How cold?
- wojciii 2mo agoThere is no limit really. The baby is in warm clothes and in a sleeping bag during winter. Less clothes when its warm. My children slept outside while it was below zero C. The only time they were not sleeping outside was while they were ill.. having a cold or something. Edit: the limit is -10 C according to https://www.sst.dk/vidensbase/graviditet-og-smaaboern/barnets-sundhed/boern-0-2-aar/smaa-boerns-ophold-i-kulden https://www.sst.dk/vidensbase/graviditet-og-smaaboern/barnet... This is well known around here: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21537988 https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21537988
- LtWorf 2mo agoI've been living in scandinavia for several years and I've never seen this happen in person. Just on reddit and now here. I kinda doubt it's something widespread.
- wojciii 2mo agoAround here (Northern Jutland, Danmark) this is the norm. But do doubt away. :) Please see the official guidelines: https://www.sst.dk/vidensbase/graviditet-og-smaaboern/barnets-sundhed/boern-0-2-aar/smaa-boerns-ophold-i-kulden https://www.sst.dk/vidensbase/graviditet-og-smaaboern/barnet...
- LtWorf 2mo agoPerhaps just say "here in northern jutland" next time?
- camgunz 2mo agoNo one knows where that is. I've also heard this is very common in the northern Scandinavian countries, there are even little "houses" you can buy.
- recursive-call 2mo agomy friends in Boston do this where their baby. They call it “Nordic baby training” or something like that. They aren’t Scandinavian so the practice has at least some reach
- LtWorf 2mo ago> No one knows where that is. Why not just say "europe" directly then? Everybody knows about that, and you don't seem concerned with correctness anyway.
- wojciii 2mo agoI should have provided a google maps link, but I was afraid to. I don't trust the Google map sharing. :) I will do better next time. :)
