Baby bath touch

After the baby is born, he needs to be bathed, and after bathing the baby, he needs to be gently touched. This will make the baby feel comfortable and safe, and it is also good for the baby's physical health. However, for many novice parents, they don’t know how to bathe the baby or massage the baby, for fear that they will hurt the baby if they do not do it well.

How to bathe and massage a baby?

1. Adjust the indoor temperature, take off the baby's clothes, and put him in a bathtub with appropriate water temperature. Before putting the baby in, you can use your elbow to test whether the water temperature is appropriate. As long as our elbow feels a little hot, then it is just right for the baby to bathe.

2. If the baby can sit by himself, then we can put the baby in the bathtub, and then put a special swimming ring on the baby's back to prevent the baby from falling due to unstable sitting, and then give the baby a bath. After bathing, the mother can apply some lubricating oil on both hands and gently rub the baby's eyebrows, eyes, and the entire face with her thumbs.

3. After the facial massage is completed, the mother can rub some essential oils separately, and gently rub along the baby's chest and ribs with the palm of your hand. Some babies may be ticklish, so the mother should skip the ticklish parts of the baby to prevent the baby from choking on water due to excitement.

4. When massaging the baby's back, you should gently pinch the flesh on the back while applying and rubbing the product. Pinch the baby from top to bottom two or three times, and the baby will feel very comfortable.

Benefits of Baby Massage
