The Secret to Caring for your Baby’s Sensitive Skin

Babies’ skin are naturally more sensitive than most and everything that touches them must be delicately introduced. From birth, they explore an entirely new environment which requires parents to watch out for the earliest signs of redness and infection. Consulting your baby’s pediatrician may help you distinguish typical skin rash on newborns and how to manage them.

It is also crucial to check how your baby responds to bath soaps, fragrances in baby products, and detergent used to wash their clothes. Some skin sensitivities simply need a step up in hygiene routines. 

The bum area is the most typical area of rash and discomfort. It is warm, covered and frequently moist making it prone to infection. Quick and frequent diaper changes prevent skin breakdown and irritation, and the need for further treatments relatively. For starters, it’s always best to change a baby’s diaper every few hours and keep it snuggly fit on the waist covering from the baby’s bottom to leg.

Here are some tips to prevent diaper rash and keep your baby’s bum dry and comfortable for a happier and healthier infant and worry-free parenting:

  1. It is recommended to change diapers at least every 3 to 4 hours or once it looks bulky and soiled.
  1. When changing diapers, first carefully and gently wipe the small buttocks, thighs, and belly areas to ensure that no stains remain, and then put on new diapers again only after the baby bum is dry.
  1. After the baby wears the same diaper all night, the little bum may appear slightly red. At this time, there is no need to worry too much, just clean and put on a new diaper in time. However, if the baby’s red skin expands or feels pain, then it is time to seek medical advice.
