How to improve the child's fear of taking a bath

Children are lively and active, and their metabolism is very active. If they take a bath frequently, they can avoid bacterial invasion. However, children's skin is delicate, and many new mothers are often in a hurry when bathing their babies. Many children will cry during the bathing process. So how to make the children bathe comfortably is one of the skills that mothers must learn. Let’s now look at how to alleviate children’s fear of taking a bath.

1. Relax and enjoy. Most pediatricians believe that babies do not need to be bathed every day, but babies do need the caress and teasing of their parents and other people who love them every day, and bathing is one of the opportunities. At the same time, it can also help children develop very important hygiene habits. Bathing is an activity that everyone should do on a regular basis.

2. Make children feel safe. If you don't know how to bathe your newborn baby, you can ask a doctor for advice. You can also get some experience and advice from the elderly so that you will have a better idea. If you feel confident, both you and your baby will feel safer. When bathing your child, you can sing and talk to him/her gently and encourage him/her to splash water and play, which will make your child spend this time happily.

3. Make your child completely comfortable. Newborn babies like to be bathed in a small tub because they feel they will sink in a larger tub. You can place a towel over the edge of the tub, use one hand to support your child so that he faces you, and use your other hand to bathe him. Be careful about the temperature of your bath water and your room. Bathe your child with non-irritating soap, shampoo, and a soft towel. Close the safety valve on the faucet to prevent children from turning on the faucet. After taking your baby out of the bath, wrap him in a large, dry towel.

Sometimes when children are having a lot of fun, they don’t want to take a bath, so they often find ways to avoid taking a bath. If taking a bath every day seems to be an unshakable thing for the child, the child will realize that it is useless to avoid taking a bath.
