Baby tips for bathing

Article Category: Parenting

Author Name: Anthony

As with all babies, especially newborn ones, everything should be handled with utmost care. Parenting may be at most an instinct but part of it is asking for baby tips and advice from experts, especially regarding technical knowhow. For example, how can the temperature of the bathing water be left to instinct? Good parents with a knack for parenting may instinctively know right off the bat, but on the other hand it might be a lucky guess which cannot be safely reproduced at another time; but what is more important to remember is that babies are extremely more sensitive than adults. With temperature, this means they get scalded and cold easily. According to pediatricians, the water temperature must be at 120 degrees Fahrenheit (or below), and must be tested on the elbow or wrist, as the skin there is thinnest and most sensitive which makes it an almost accurate indicator of temperature that's tolerable for babies. Pediatricians say that the water must be comfortably warm; but exactly how warm is left to the parents' better instinct. Parents, on the other hand, must keep in mind that instead of taking liberties and "being creative," it is best to learn by the book and practice extreme caution.

Here are some baby tips for bathing, collated from materials authored by private and government practicing pediatricians:

Since parents must never leave their babies alone or unsupervised, it is best to prepare everything beforehand. Babies can be bathed anywhere there is a flat surface - bath tub, kitchen sink or a baby tub - and a comfortable room temperature (around 75 degrees Farenheit) as to not chill the baby when his or her clothes are taken off. Parents will need a change of clothes, washcloth or sponge, baby soap and shampoo (with mild formulation, not one that grownups use!) and a towel to lie the baby on for drying. If the tub or the sink is slippery make sure to proof it with a rubber mat before placing the baby on it.

Run the water two to three inches, and hold your baby with your dominant hand. The hand must first support the baby's head, then it must wrap around the little torso to grasp the armpit firmly. Do the same if baby's underside is to be washed; have him or her rest his or her weight on your forearm, while holding him/her up by the armpit. Wipe him or her up and down with your free hand; pay careful attention to the diaper areas. Examine the baby's body for any unusual marks on the skin, like rashes, especially in the diaper area.

Babies do not need to take a bath daily (because they get cold easily). A wipedown with a washcloth or a sponge bath is good thrice a week, while soap and shampoo is recommended only once a week. Remember that the suds must not get into the baby's eyes even if the formulation is mild. The diaper area, of course, needs frequent cleaning as needed.
