Not to suffer, pay attention to tips from nanny Vanessa Mourão, São Paulo. According to her, you need to plan the long-awaited moment carefully. "Prefer the hottest time of day and never bathe after breastfeeding," teaches.
It is essential to remove rings and bracelets and, of course, wash hands and forearms. Also, choose the site carefully and let everything you need at hand: mild soap, cotton swab, cream for diaper rash, soft hooded towel or cloth diaper to wipe the baby. "This is to prevent changes of environment, temperature and air currents."
Vanessa suggests that mothers do the sterile first baby before you even put it in water, cleaning the genital area with a cotton cloth moistened with mild soap and water, without forgetting the folds. Then, in time to put the puppy in the water, do not panic. "Position your baby on your forearm in front of you. The head and trunk must be supported at the elbow and forearm and his hand on the butt, "teaches.
The free hand should wash their hair, face and behind the ears, being careful with water in the ears and eyes. Rinse everything with the bath water and soap then the rest of the body. "If the baby remains unsettled, put a cloth diaper on the tummy can soothe him," says Vanessa. After that, you need to position the little baby on his stomach. "Your forearm should support the chest. Hold the arm with the hand of the baby. Lather up and down the neck, back, butt and then rinse.
Phew. The bath is over. Rinse well the puppy, remembering the folds. The umbilical region must be very dry and clean under the guidance of a pediatrician. The last tip from Vanessa, and not least, never leave the baby alone, alone in the bathtub or on top of the exchanger. "Accidents can happen. Avoid answering telephones and doorbells during the baby's bath, no matter if it's the first or not. "
