Can a vaporiser (humidifier) be used with a 3 month old baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: I encourage their use when the heat is on in the house because it drys out the air. During the summers, the house is already humid and its use adds little and may create problems.Humidity above 50% supports dust mite growth and above 70% supports mold.Staying at 30-40% is ideal and you can get a button battery powered humidity gauge to monitor the need.
