Since the baby's skin is so thin and sensitive, it is necessary to take care of it very carefully. First-time mothers may experience practices that may unintentionally cause problems.
So what should inexperienced mothers do to keep their baby's skin healthy?
Take care not to sweat
Dressing your baby thickly, whose sweat ducts work less than adults, can cause a rash. Exposing the body to intense heat and humidity as a result of thick clothes can cause a rash all over your baby's body. You can ensure that your baby's skin is healthy by wearing light and cotton clothes that will not cause sweating and can breathe.
Protect from diaper rash
You can prevent diaper rash by changing the diaper frequently. Every time you change your baby's diaper, you should not neglect to use anti-nappy creams, you can protect the skin from the damage of urine in this way.

It is in the form of yellow crust and dandruff. For its treatment, it will be enough to soften the hair with olive oil half an hour before the bath and comb it with a fine-toothed comb.
Beware of house dust to avoid eczema
Eczema is a skin problem that manifests itself with redness, scaling and dandruff.

Since pets and house dust can trigger eczema, you should monitor and monitor your baby's reaction.

The barrier effect against external pollutants has not yet developed, and the skin's response to the environment is faster. In addition, you should keep your baby away from bacteria and pathogens, and prevent the formation of eczema.
