Baby Skin & Body CareA blog on baby care

I enjoy long hot bubble baths, while reading a book. It is relaxing. But I have read online that you shouldn’t take hot baths. So what is hot to you could be cold to me, how do I know if the water is to hot? Is it safe to lay in a bath tub for that long? Is it okay to use bubble bath soap? I just don’t want to hurt my baby? So what did you all do? Should I just stick with showers?
Thanks

I have a question about bathing my fancy white russian dwarf hamster, Renesmee. Okay I have given her 3 baths before using a very small amount of regular hand soap because we don’t have baby soap. I was wondering if thats okay to use hand soap, and I also wanted to know if it was okay if i want to use bath gel on it? Because I found this bath gel that smells really good and i wanted to know if its okay to use it, and i dont want to hurt it.

I bath my baby in a tub of water. I wash his hair and body with baby shampoo / body wash. I then rinse his body with the water that’s already in the tub… is this right? But I am just rinsing him with soapy water… could you share the exact steps that you do please?

This may be heresy, but I don’t really care for the smell of Johnson’s baby shampoo, and never really have. What are your favorite bath products to use, and what would you avoid? I’m pregnant, but i’d love to use L’Oreal Kids gentle tear free shampoos on my baby (if he/she has any hair lol). They have wonderful, fruity, but not too strong smells: fruit punch, watermelon, sunny orange, melon, etc.
For instance: what about body washes or soaps- what’s your favourite? Do you like the all-in-one body & hair washes? Are bath mitts a good idea? How about lotions?

They have had flea shampoo bathes this week also. But the last bath was with baby shampoo and conditioner. This is the worst year for fleas and I want to provide relief for my ladies!!!

I have a guinea pig that’s almost 2 years old and she stinks! How do i give her a bath? Should the water be warm? do i use baby shampoo?

Now that my boys are strapping and healthy, I’d like to give my friendly little guy a bath (the other is too skittish, I’d feel terrible giving other forms of stress). He’s gotten pretty oily and is the dingy orange color you tend to see on males.
What I wanted to know is: I have no Johnson’s Baby Shampoo and the only animal soaps I have are medicated dog soaps.
Would this soap be okay to use?
Obviously if not, I’m just going to wait to get a hold of an appropriate shampoo, but if I can use something on hand, that’d be great.
Thanks for your time!
