Baby baths not only make your baby happy, but they also help to develop their emotional and physical well-being. They help establish a routine, and can even set the mood for your baby if done in the evening. It's essential to have all the accessories and essentials you need before you begin.
First, you will need to get a bath bathtub and a baby bath mat. The mat helps to reduce the likelihood that your baby will slip into the bath tub and get hurt.
After you've placed the mat and bath tub, add about 2 inches of warmwater to it. You want to keep your baby comfortable and warm, so don't fill it too full.
Next, take your baby to the bath tub. Place them feet-first. Support them with one arm. Once your baby is fully submerged, lift him out and move him to a towel on the changing table or on the floor to dry him off.
The last step is to wash your baby's body with baby soap or shampoo. You can scrub your baby's entire skin from neck to bottom with a very small amount. Use a soft, clean washcloth to gently rinse your baby. Pat him dry with a towel.
You should also wipe his eyes with cotton yarn dipped under lukewarm hot water. Next, rinse his eyes with warm water and wash his ears with gentle baby shampoo.
It is important to choose a mild, perfume-free product. Avoid harsh chemicals like parabens or phthalates, which can damage the skin.
It is also a good idea have some baby shampoo products that are both body wash and shampoo. You don't have to purchase them separately and you can save money on bottles that you need for baby bathing.
Ask your pediatrician if you can add oatmeal powder into the water to soothe your baby's sensitive skin.
Next, wrap your baby's head in a soft, plush towel. Towels that are soft and gentle, free from chemical dyes, detergents, and toxic plastics are best.
You'll also want a baby washcloth that's thick, soft and machine-washable. Choose from cotton, bamboo, flannel, nylon or muslin.
It's likely that your baby will get so soaked in the first few showers. So make sure that you get a washcloth that is strong and well-stitched. It will be used repeatedly so make sure to invest in a high-quality washcloth that will last many years.
A hooded bath towel is a must-have for your newborn. These towels can be large enough to cover your infant's chest or chin. They'll also keep him warm and dry in the tub.
Some other useful bathing supplies include a bathtub liner, a thermometer, or a bathtub spout covers. These items are all available online or at your local supermarket.
