Is it okay to have a baby bath every day?

Many parents have great doubts about whether it is good for children to bathe every day. Some people think it is good to bathe children in this way, but some people think it is not good to bathe children every day. There is a prescribed time for children to bathe, and they must be bathed reasonably. Children's bodies are very fragile. If you don't pay attention to bathing children reasonably at this time, it is easy to cause greater harm to the children's bodies. So is it good for babies to bathe every day?

Babies' skin is different from adults'. Their skin is thinner and more delicate. Bathing them every day can indeed make them clean, but it may also cause dry skin. Especially for children with dry skin, soaking in water every day may cause the skin to become dehydrated, drier, and even peeling. If you bathe your child for too long, the outermost stratum corneum of the skin will absorb water and become soft, reducing the skin's resistance.

In addition, you don’t have to use shower gel every time you bathe your child. Just wash with clean water.

There is a layer of oil on the outside of children's skin, which plays an important role in keeping the skin moisturized, reducing external irritation and keeping warm. Many shower gels are alkaline, which will destroy this layer of oil and easily make the skin dry and rough. Repeatedly rubbing the body with shower gel may cause sensitive skin in severe cases.

Therefore, if the child is not too dirty, there is no need to wash him every day. It can be washed every one or two days depending on the specific situation. Bath gel can be used once a week. If you need to take a shower every day when the weather is hot, just rinsing with clean water will be enough.

Bathing can clean the baby's body, remove sweat and bacteria, relax muscles and bones, eliminate fatigue, and help improve sleep quality. In addition to being exposed to dust and bacteria from the outside world, the baby's skin also produces a lot of dirt itself. There are 100 to 250 sweat glands for every 1 square centimeter of baby's skin. The dirt discharged by these sweat glands must be removed in time. If dust, bacteria and body dirt are not removed in time, it will affect cell metabolism and be detrimental to the baby's blood circulation. Therefore, it is not harmful to the baby's body to bathe him every day, but improper bathing will bring health risks to the baby.

Taking a bath regularly is a form of exercise for babies. When they go into the water, they will gradually master the balance and their immunity will be enhanced. Therefore, you should give your baby a bath every day.

New mothers are definitely not very experienced in bathing their babies, but don't be afraid. First of all, you need to make preparations and prepare the baby's clothes, diapers, a small blanket and 75% alcohol in advance.

When bathing your baby, the indoor temperature should not be lower than 23 degrees and the water temperature should not be lower than 40 degrees. When bathing your baby, you should wash his hair first, clean his head and face, and then put the baby in the water.

When bathing your child, you must be careful. The water temperature should not be too high or too low. The child is still young and his body is not dirty. Therefore, the bathing time should not be too long, as this will harm the child's body. If you find that the child's body is not dirty when bathing the child, you can actually choose not to use shower gel or soap for the child. These chemicals are also harmful to the child's body.
