What is cotton ball used for newborn ?

Hi hi FTM here, i already started buying baby stuff and wonder what does cotton ball used for ? Is it to dampen and wipe baby lightly after pee/poo and also to wipe face ? Usually how do you clean baby after pee/poo? Just wet tissue ? #advicepls #FTM

May I suggest that for diaper change (especially after pooping), please wash with water. newborn skin is very soft and they poo multiple times a day. wet wipes might cause abrasions when used multiple times especially to clean thoroughly. my boy is 3 yrs old now and has never experienced diaper rash/ red skin/ abrasion even when he has diarrhoea. it's very painful for them and I've seen it happen multiple times (have more than 10 nieces and nephews).

on a side note, cotton ball soaked with water works as well but it's messy as hell
