How do you bathe your baby?
My baby is 7 weeks old now, have been bathing her with half a pump of the cetaphil shampoo/soap into the bath water in baby tub as taught by confinement nanny. And don’t need to wash off. Wondering when can put more of the soap and when to put the soap/shampoo like how we bathe as adults..? Thanks!#firsttimemom #advicepls
Babies don't perspire as much as us or even as much as toddlers so there's actually no need to even use soap that frequently. but yes cz of sg weather, personally I also only put half a pump for my baby. Depends on how sensitive ur baby's skin too. For my firstborn, we weren't so sure and made bubble bath for him but luckily his skin is totally fine, not dry, never had any rashes. We only use cheap Kodomo wash till now he's 3 years old. But for my 2nd born (7 wks too), we are more careful not to use too much soap cz her skin seems to be more delicate, (often gets heat rash). So I often use breastmilk in her water bath cz it's actually better than using soap.

I dont think babies need alot of soap cause theyre not that dirty, not as dirty as adult. My baby is almost 4 months i still put little bit of soap.
