Wind is fine: Windy weather does not lead to ear or lung infections in infants although some myths are out there saying so. Germs cause disease not the wind.If the weather is not comfortable for you, it wouldn't be so for baby.But windy weather is no reason to stay inside. It is fine to stay indoors when you need to.About 15 min/day of sunlight can help activate babies vitamin d.
