It's recommended that you bathe your baby in warm water, which is about 37 degrees Celsius. It's important to avoid getting the baby too cold or too hot, as this could cause discomfort or health problems. Many parents find that cooler water temperatures are more comfortable for newborns and infants. If the water is too hot, it may cause the baby to become red or irritated.
After the first rinse you can give her a warm bath and soap her up gently. The temperature is also paramount when it comes to drying your newborn off after you have showered your newborn. This will protect them from getting eczema, which is common in early childhood and looks like dry patches on the hands and head that can turn into blisters or clog up parts of their body such as ears and faces too.
