How often should I bathe my baby?You do not have to bathe your baby every day if you are keeping the diaper area clean with each diaper change. Baby's skin can dry out very quickly if bathed too often. A complete bath 1 or 2 times a week is sufficient. Should I wash my baby's face?Your babies face should be washed every day with a wash cloth and warm water. Pay attention to the folds under his chin where milk may collect. Most babies do not like to have their face washed and will wiggle and squirm. It helps to do one side of his face at a time, trying not to completely cover the face all at once. How do I clean my baby's nose?Wiping your baby's nose with a soft tissue will usually help remove extra secretions. If you have a bulb syringe be sure to push the air out of the bulb before gently inserting the very tip of the syringe into the nose. You do not want to use any force or squeeze the air into your baby's nose.
