The benefits of bathing for relaxation If you have problems with getting baby to settle, try bathing them before last feed. The bath will help to relax them and then the bottle should send them into a peaceful sleep. You could also try adding a drop of camomile into the bath. This helps to soothe and relax even further. Try putting a radio in the baby's room on low volume.
Some babies seem to prefer background noise to complete silence.
It will help relax both of you. Can soothe an unsettled baby. Enhances the bonding process. Allows you to gain confidence in handling a new born baby. We would advise not to use essential oils before checking with either a qualified aromatherapist or pharmacist as not all are safe to use with young children.
