HOW TO BATHE A BABY
There are many ways to bathe the baby. This is one way that you can do it so one thing is to have everything laid out before you get started it's hard to grab things once. you're going to have everything laid out. the temperature of the water is going to be just you know a little bit warmer than room temperature and .now it is time to check the temperature of water use your elbow or wrist whether it is warm for you. use warm water is important to give a nice bath. having a plastic cup is great to be able to gently pour some nice warm water on the baby, not all babies enjoy their first bath so you're not doing anything wrong if your baby is crying and not enjoying it so the other nice tip is to have your shampoo in a pump being able to use one hand while bathing is extremely helpful. you'll see that I've also got a soft cotton cloth and that is a nice way to get to harder to reach areas so use a little bit of soap if your baby enjoys the bath then you can bathe the baby every day but don't use soap every day you want to be gentle on the baby's skin and soap can be very drying and keep in mind that your baby is not that dirty other than the dirty spots so diaper areas and under the chin, after feeding you can spot clean so it's recommended every two to two-three times a week for most babies. You also give a bath once a week or a couple of the week works for you make sure that you're getting into the creases so under the neck under the arms in between the legs .put the bathtubs in a spacious place and on the counter .it is easy to give a bath.
BATH TUB
use wide bathtub along with a slope .in some bathtubs slope is coming along with the tub. If not buy separately, it is very helpful to place the baby on it to give a bath, I prefer a netted slope, water get drains through it during the bath, Nearby the tub I put additional water in a bucket to give bath I don't prefer to fill the tub with water. I don't prefer to give baths again and again with the same water it is my preference only. I feel better and hygienic in this way. already I told I had two children for my second baby I used the bathtub method to give a bath. when you finish the bath at the front side you gently grab your baby and tilt back slightly and give a bath at the backside also. so your baby gets a nice bath now. bring the baby right quickly to the towel and wrapped up, I know babies don't like to be cold so wrapping baby up as quickly as possible and having another towel underneath your baby towel and is easy for a quick change. after you're done in the bath you could take this time to do a bit of infant massage this is a nice bonding time These are ways to give bath your babies at your home. I used a bathtub for my second baby especially used luvlap brand it is budget-friendly .it is durable and made up of high-quality material lightweight my daughter is 5 years old, I used this for 2 years. still, I had this tub.
