Many parents choose to purchase a newborn bath, but an inflatable tub, a water basin, or even a well-prepared sink will do the trick. You will also need mild baby soap, cotton balls, washcloths, a towel, clean diapers, and clean clothes.<\/p>\n<h3>Giving the bath<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Since you\u2019ll be bathing <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> outside the tub at first, simply fill a bowl or the sink with lukewarm water and wrap <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> in a towel, then place <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> lying down on <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> back.<\/li>\n<li>Dip a cotton ball in water and wipe <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>\u2019s eyes, making sure to use a fresh ball for each eye.<\/li>\n<li>Next, dampen a washcloth and wipe <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> face and ears, without using soap. Don&#8217;t forget <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> skin-folds, or behind <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> ears, but be sure not to wash or let water drip into <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>&#8216;s inner ear canal.<\/li>\n<li>Place a little soap on the cloth and wash <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>\u2019s neck, scalp, and the rest of <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> body. <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">They probably doesn&#8217;t<\/span> have much in the way of hair yet, so rubbing a damp, soapy washcloth over <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> scalp should keep <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> squeaky-clean. Newborns who DO in fact arrive with a full head of hair could need a more thorough hair-wash, which you can read more about <a href=\"\/guide\/10769\/washing-baby-hair\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>There&#8217;s some divided opinion about washing <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>&#8216;s umbilical stump, so check in with the doctor if you&#8217;re unsure, but generally, as long as the stump is clean, keeping it clean and dry and untouched by the sponge bath is the way to go. If there&#8217;s some crustiness, you can carefully wipe it clean with a clean, damp cloth, and then pat or air it dry.<\/li>\n<li>Rinse off the soap and dry, rewrapping <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> with a towel. <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>&#8216;s head is likely to get cold after a bath, especially if <span class=\"pronoun-they\" data-pronoun=\"they\">they has<\/span> a luscious head of hair, so covering <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> head with a dry towel is a great way to keep <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> from getting a chill.<\/li>\n<li>Some newborns come into the world with that fabled soft skin, but others are a little more sensitive, and bathing can dry sensitive newborn skin out even further. If <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>&#8216;s skin is a little dry or peeling, if you want to, you can gently rub some mild baby moisturizer into <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> skin before popping <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> back into <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> onesie.<\/li>\n<li>Put on a clean diaper and clothes, and resume cuddling!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Tips and Tricks<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure you never take your hands off <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> while bathing <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span>. This is a great time to bond with <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span>, so make sure to use it as a fun play-time, not just cleaning. Try dropping a little water on <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> tummy and watch the laughs roll in. Some newborns have a hard time with the cold, so only expose skin for short periods of time. Remember that <span class=\"pronoun-baby\" data-pronoun=\"baby\">Baby<\/span> does not need to be bathed every day, because this can dry out <span class=\"pronoun-their\" data-pronoun=\"their\">their<\/span> skin. You only need to give <span class=\"pronoun-them\" data-pronoun=\"them\">them<\/span> sponge baths until the umbilical stump comes off, and then you can transition to the baby bath.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>Sources<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mayo Clinic Staff. \u201cBaby bath basics: A parent\u2019s guide.\u201d <em>Mayo Clinic<\/em>.
