Bath time is one of those magical moments where giggles, splashes, and bonding happen. But for new moms, it can also feel a little overwhelming. The good news? With a few simple precautions, you can make bath time both safe and enjoyable for your baby.
Here’s a quick safety checklist to guide you:
Never leave your baby unattended – Even a few seconds can be risky, so keep everything within reach before you start.
Test the water temperature – Aim for lukewarm (around 37–38°C / 98–100°F). A bath thermometer can be a helpful tool.
Limit the water level – A few inches is all you need for newborns and infants.
Create a slip-free setup – Use a baby bath seat or non-slip mat to prevent sliding.
Keep essentials nearby – Towels, gentle baby wash, diaper, and clothes should be ready before you place your little one in the water.
Dry thoroughly afterward – Pay extra attention to tiny folds and creases to keep skin healthy and comfortable.
Remember, bath time isn’t just about cleanliness—it’s about connection. With the right preparation, you’ll both look forward to this special daily ritual. 💕
