How to clean the vulva of a baby girl correctly?

We all know that women should pay attention to taking care of their genitals in daily life, especially after getting married and having sex. If not properly cared for, it may cause some gynecological diseases. And judging from the current situation in society, women in their thirties and forties basically have some gynecological problems. So, what is the correct way to clean a baby girl's vulva?

First of all, it is best to wipe the baby's vulva carefully every time you change your baby's diaper and after each urination or defecation. Wipe her urethra and the area around it with a soft, lint-free tissue. When wiping, move from front to back to avoid accidentally letting fecal residue enter the baby's genitals. Secondly, when cleaning the vulva of a baby girl, it is best to wash it twice a day with warm water. The order of cleaning the baby girl's vulva is the same as the direction of wiping, and it must be from front to back. In addition, it is important to change the baby girl's diapers or disposable diapers frequently. When applying talcum powder to the baby girl, do not apply it near the genitals, otherwise the dust can easily enter the deep vagina from the vaginal opening and cause discomfort.

Here are some common questions:

The vaginal opening is gone!

When the baby is just born, the vaginal opening can be seen, but it gradually disappears. Why is this?

If you can see your baby when it's born, then you don't have to worry too much. The most likely reason is that as the baby's body grows, the subcutaneous fat thickens, causing the baby's vaginal opening to be "hidden". If you are still worried, you can take your baby to consult a doctor.

Vaginal bleeding!

One time when I was changing my baby's diaper, I found some light red stuff on the diaper. At first I thought it was scratched somewhere, but it happened several times in a row. Oh my god, could this be precocious puberty?

About a week after a baby girl is born, a small amount of bloody mucus may flow out of her vagina, which may last for two weeks. This is neonatal false menstruation, which occurs in about 45% of newborn girls. It is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require any treatment. When bathing a baby girl with false menstruation, do not use a tub bath. Instead, take a shower or use running water to clean the vulva. Mothers can gently wipe it with a cotton swab soaked in clean water. As long as they clean the baby in time, there is no need to be nervous. If there is a lot of bloody secretions, you should see a doctor immediately to rule out the possibility of coagulation dysfunction or bleeding diseases.
