In many parts of the world it is customary to put a cap on a newborn baby as soon as it comes to life. The meaning of this practice lies in the fact that the temperature of the environment is lower than the one from which it has just come out. Therefore, to avoid a possible hypothermia in the baby, this accessory is used.
It is a fact that the baby's own organism will gradually regulate the adaptation of its temperature to the new environment; perhaps, this is not an immediate process; in this sense, the company Estipharm makes the Birth Cap available to the public, as an aid to control the adaptation of the newborn to its new environment. It is recommended to use the cap until 3 months of age.
