Pediatricians recommend that babies come into contact with the aquatic environment in the first months of life, since this experience favors both their psychomotor and intellectual development. Of course, the pool must be equipped for the youngest children: water temperature around 32ºC, chlorination below 0.6 and, if possible, presence of a child monitor. You also have to take a series of precautions, such as putting the baby carefully so that he does not dive until he has adapted to the environment, which is not difficult for him because he lived it before birth, and until he has the apnea reflex developed , otherwise it will continue to breathe when submerging the head.
