Is chlorine harmful and is it serious if, for example, he gets a little water in his mouth when he puts his hands in?

Hello, can a 5 month old baby go into a pool or spa (without the jets)?

Hello and thank you for your question,
In fact, the spa is not suitable for a child (let alone a baby), because it is much too hot and as they have a small body surface to evacuate the heat it could be very dangerous.
For a pool, it's okay, and just with her hands going into her mouth, I don't see a problem here. I would limit it to a few minutes though, so no prolonged swimming.
To cool baby down, the best way is with a warm bath.
Have a nice day!
Emmanuelle
