Bathing the baby is something every mother must learn, because from the moment the baby is born, doctors instruct mothers to bathe the baby every day so that the baby can sleep more comfortably. But not all babies can take a bath in all situations. Can babies take a bath when they have numbness?
It is not recommended to give babies a bath during the period when they have pockmarks, as their skin may itch and they may scratch their skin. Taking a bath at this time can lead to infection and worsen the pockmarks. You can use a warm towel to locally wipe the baby's skin, which can avoid broken skin and prevent infection. The area with broken skin should be disinfected and cared for with disinfectant to avoid further infection.
When the baby's numbness reaches the recovery period, they can be bathed. At this point, the baby's skin is basically healed, and the broken skin area is also basically healed. Taking a shower at this time will not cause infection. But it is recommended that the mother use clean water to wash the baby, and try not to use shower gel as the baby's skin is still weak and cannot withstand any stimulation at this time.
During the period when the baby has rashes, in order to make the baby more comfortable, mothers try to dress the baby in pure cotton clothes as much as possible, which can reduce the baby's sweating. And it is important to change laundry frequently to avoid the growth of bacteria that can worsen the condition. Mothers also need to disinfect the indoor air in a timely manner and ventilate regularly to reduce the pathogenicity of the virus.
