For parents with a baby boy, the most important thing to take care of is the glans of the baby. Due to the young age of the baby, they may not pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene on their own, which requires special care from parents. Cleaning the glans is important for male babies, and parents must regularly clean their babies. So how to clean the baby's glans?
Firstly, it is important to pay attention to the temperature of the water. The male scrotum is the most sensitive to heat, as high temperatures can damage it, kill mature sperm, and thus affect male fertility. The baby is still young and has delicate skin. If the water temperature is too high, it can burn the baby's skin. Therefore, when taking a shower, careful parents must control the water temperature and try to keep it at 38-40 degrees Celsius. Water that is too cold or too hot is not good, just a little warm is enough.
Secondly, be careful not to squeeze the baby's genital area. The penis and scrotum of a baby are usually exposed and very fragile. When taking a shower, novice parents should be careful not to squeeze or pinch these parts of their baby.
Finally, the glans should be thoroughly cleaned. The baby's penis and scrotum have many folds, which are particularly prone to accumulating dirt and grime, so it is important to focus on cleaning them thoroughly. At the same time, there will be a lot of urine and sweat left near the groin area, which should also be wiped carefully.
