Reminders for bathing your baby

= Don't bathe your baby when he is full or has just finished feeding. This will make him uncomfortable. There is also a possibility that he would vomit ingested food or milk.

= To avoid accidental drowning, the tub must be wide enough for him but not too deep. Place is on a stable structure, such as the kitchen counter or table.

= To avoid accidental scalds and burns, our cold water into the tub first before adding hot water. Gauge the water's temperature by dipping your elbow or the inside of your wrist into the water.

= Make sure that everything you need is within reach. This would save you time and effort.

= Never leave you baby alone. If you must leave, take him with you. Also, never take your hands off you baby during bath.

= Make sure to have a nonslip mat or rubber mat to prevent slipping. A tub is less slippery if you put a towel under it.
