For me, I have CL lady to help me to bath my newborn during confinement. My CL used one of the wrist to grab baby's arm while the hand is holding baby's head (as shown in the picture). This is the most traditional way to bath newborn when their neck is not strong yet. However, for this time round as I do not have CL to help with bathing newborn, I bought a bath support from Mothercare and it looks like this http://www.mothercare.com/Mothercare-Ergonomic-Bath-Support/265758,default,pd.html Here is a video on how to bath a newborn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k3SLNVccoo
Hi Michelle, first get an infant bath tub that comes with a non-skid surface. get the water ready first and keep it in a small bucket or pan nearby. hold your baby in your arms and place on one arm, while holding your baby's hand with the same hand. pour water on your baby with the other hand.
Guilty! I never showered my newborn. Did not dare. I wipe him down twice daily till he was slightly bigger. Afterall they are always at home. Lol. Makes me feel guilty.
thanks
