Hello viewers, welcome to Healthy Lifestyle Channel

🧼 Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin, have everything ready and nearby:

A baby bathtub or a clean sink

Mild baby soap and shampoo (optional)

Soft washcloth or sponge

Rinsing cup or container

Hooded towel

Clean diaper

Baby clothes

Baby lotion and cotton balls (optional)

Safety Tip: Never leave the baby alone near water—even briefly.

🌡️ Step 2: Prepare the Bath Water

Fill the tub with 2–3 inches of warm water (about 37–38°C or 98.6–100.4°F).

Test the water with your wrist or elbow to ensure it's warm, not hot.

Make sure the room is warm and free of drafts.

🛁 Step 3: Bathing the Baby

💧 If your baby still has the umbilical stump:

Give a sponge bath on a soft towel.

Use a wet, warm washcloth to gently clean the face, then the body.

Avoid getting the umbilical area wet.

Clean the diaper area last.

If the umbilical stump has healed:

Hold the baby securely and gently lower them into the water, feet first.

Keep their head and neck supported with one hand.

Use a washcloth to clean the face without soap.

Use mild soap on their body if needed—arms, legs, neck, and diaper area.

Rinse gently using a cup or clean washcloth.

After a quick rinse, carefully lift the baby and wrap them in a towel.

🧴 Step 4: Drying and Optional Skincare

Pat baby dry gently, especially in skin folds.

You may apply a light baby lotion if desired.

Use a clean, damp cotton ball to wipe around eyes and ears (no cotton swabs inside ears).

👕 Step 5: Diapering and Dressing

Lay the baby on a soft surface.

Put on a clean diaper, avoiding any irritated areas.

Dress baby in soft, comfortable clothes—like a onesie or sleeper.

Start with the arms, then legs. Fasten any buttons or zippers gently.

✅ Extra Tips:

Keep the baby calm by talking, singing, or maintaining eye contact.

Bathing 2–3 times a week is usually enough for young babies.

Use non-slip surfaces and keep a firm grip—wet babies are slippery!
