Yes esp when we fed him with fm. Once or twice per week with cloth rinse with warm water. Too many times may worsen the problem. The rest of time I will let him lo sip a bit of warm water after feeding.

I use wash cloth and twice a day. I will rinse the wash cloth 2 twice then rinse with cool boiled water then use cool boiled water to clean LO's tongue.

Yes. Just use cloth to clean usually I will do it when I bathing baby. And I will see the tongue and decide when to clean usually about once a week.

I use either sterile gauze and boiled water or NUK oral wipes. I would usually clean her tongue and gums once a day after her bath.

I scared cloth will have detergent. So, NUK oral wipes. Used & throw. More hygienic..

Yes , use a soft towel and put warm water then clean the tongue slowly .

Everyday during bath and evening wipe down. Use damped cloth.

Use a clean (boiled) wash cloth at least once per day :)
