There is white discharge from the girl's vagina

Many mothers find white secretions from their baby girls and are very worried whether their babies have vaginitis. In fact, in most cases this is a normal phenomenon and can be washed with clean water every day. If some lumps cannot be washed off, you can use a cotton swab to wipe them out, but be sure to be gentle to avoid hurting the skin. If the discharge is abnormal, of course you should see a doctor.

In fact, mothers don’t need to worry, because those are the vaginal secretions and vernix caseosa residues when the baby was in the womb. Every baby girl will have white secretions between the labia minora. Rinse it from front to back with clean water every day. Be careful when washing, don't wash inside, just rinse with clean water, from inside to outside, towards the anus. Just wash it clean. If there are lumps, you can wipe them gently with a sterilized cotton swab. Wipe a little every day and they will gradually become clean. Don't scrub too hard to avoid damaging the skin.

Things to note when washing your baby

1. When cleaning a girl's genitals, pay attention to the order and clean from top to bottom and from front to back. Just use a soft towel to gently clean the outer vaginal opening. Never wash the inside. Otherwise, the delicate skin of the vagina may be injured, which is what every young mother does not want.

2. After washing, wipe dry the water in time to keep the vagina clean and fresh at all times.

3. Some mothers have the habit of applying talcum powder to their genitals, which is actually inappropriate. Talcum powder may mix with undried moisture and sweat and accumulate in the wrinkles of the skin, forming small particles. Rubbing the skin may cause ulcers on the baby's delicate skin. Mothers must not do good things with bad intentions.

4. Before cleaning the baby, the mother should pay attention to the hygiene of her hands to avoid contaminating the vulva.

5. Do not apply any skin care products to the child's vulva casually. Secondly, the child's vulva should be cleaned every other day to prevent dirt from accumulating.

6. Pay attention to the hygiene of the baby's private parts. Wash them with warm water after urination or defecation, and change diapers frequently.

7. Girls should try not to wear open-crotch pants, as they expose the vulva and are prone to secondary infection.

8. It is best to buy underwear made of pure cotton to avoid causing vulvar allergies and itching.

9. The basin and towel used to clean the child's vulva must be dedicated and cannot be used with adults. It is best to use one basin for washing the face and one towel for washing the buttocks.
