Here are some products that are intended for baby’s skin. They are gentle,effective,and can save you some money.

* Baby wipes-I find these make great makeup removers,especially around my eye area.

* Baby moisturizer- this is great for all skin types,but I find the heavier ones better for my dry skin.

* Most baby lotions-These are double action products because they gently cleanse and moisturize at the same time. They won’t strip your skin of it’s natural oils.

* Baby Shampoos-are extremely gentle to your hair and won’t strip the color if you dye it.

Often baby oils and bath treatments contain natural ingredients for your skin so they are great to check out as well. Open label and release wet tissue from the opening .after use please close the label completely to retain the moisture. These premium travel pack baby wipes are packed 10 thick, soft wipes per pack, with 120 bags baby wipe travel packs per ctns.

If you find out your baby dirty, you can try washing it by firmly supporting the head and shoulders with your free arm. If shampoo is being used, ensure that it is properly rinsed off. After the bath, baby should be dried well with a warm and soft towel.

Soon after the bath, a good quality moisturizing lotion can be applied all over the body. Then, the baby can be dressed in clean and fresh diapers.

Bathing a newborn baby is probably a traumatic event for a first time mom. Newborns can seem so fragile, and wet, slippery ones downright frightening. But, don’t fear; once you get the hang of it, you’ll feel like a pro. There’s no need to give your newborn a bath every day. Bathing your baby more than several times a week can dry out his or her skin.

If you’re quick with clean diapers and burp cloths, you’re already cleaning the parts that really need attention — the face, neck and diaper area.

First of all, it’s important not to put your newborn in any sort of bathtub until her umbilical cord has fallen off. If your baby is circumcised, you need to wait until this has healed, as well. Until then, give your baby a sponge bath.

Baby care includes the sensible guidelines for feeding, nappy cleansing, bathing and a good number of other daily work involved in caring for your child.

Changing:
The baby’s diapers should be regularly changed.  The intervals should be fixed according to the baby’s routine of potting and wetting.  Despite the routine, the baby may need changing because of  untimely nature calls at times. It is the baby’s right to feel dry at every moment.  See to it that the bed is not wetted and the smelly clothes and bed sheets are removed.

Oral Care:
Most of the babies get their first tooth between 6-10 months, while few of them don’t get it till 12 months. You can start cleaning your baby’s teeth as soon as they appear.

You can keep your baby’s smile fresh by using a clean wash cloth to gently rub the teeth clean, at least twice a day. After the breakfast and before going to bed are good times to give it a go. Even baby’s toothpaste is not recommended, until he/she is 2 yrs old.

You have been told countless times, undoubtedly, that babies are messy eaters because they explore the environment with all of their senses. Also without a doubt, no one has ever told you how to clean him up afterward, particularly if he doesn’t want to be cleaned up.

You can always gather him into a football hold, squalling and fighting, and just wipe the crusts and rinds away with a washcloth at the sink.

This way is more fun: Hold out a squirt bottle and spray the sweet potatoes away. Do this on his face (protecting his eyes with your hand, of course) and hands. Beware: He may have so much fun with this that he will splash his food around just to get squirted.

If that happens, just go back to using the quarterback hold in the sink.

Clean them IMMEDIATELY after use so no food gets stuck in the mesh. Run water over the bag to clean – if needed use a small brush (like toothbrush) to brush the mesh to get food out.

Diapering can be a daunting experience, and not just because of baby’s effluents.

There are a lot of things out there you can put on baby’s butt. Here’s a list to make some sense of it:

• Zinc oxide (Desitin, et cetera), Vitamin A & D ointment.

• These are barrier creams: They let oxygen in to the skin, and allow moisture out.

• They can (and should) be used with each diaper change for the first few months, when the skin is most susceptible to irritation.

• Petroleum jelly (Vaseline, et cetera). An occlusive ointment.

• It blocks in moisture, which can cause a rash, and prevents air, which allows rashes to heal, from getting in,.

• If s OK for chapped lips, when you want to trap moisture on dry skin, but should never be used for routine care.

• Moisturizing lotion (Eucerin, et cetera). Moisturizes the superficial layers of the skin.

• A useful lotion for eczema or just plain dry skin on the arms, legs, face, and trunk.

• It isn’t needed all that often in the diaper area, since the skin there is relatively moist and protected.
