Baby Skin & Body CareA blog on baby care

Can a man thoroughly wash his genitals with warm water and soap, along with using a clean towel too immediately after sex to rid of any germs? How about about using purell right after sex, or wiping down with rubbing alcohol around the base of the genitals, then taking a shower and washing thoroughly after sex? How about wiping down with baby wipes all around the genitals and the outside of the condom while its on, to rid of any infectionous germs?

My concern is that since our daughter is constantly sucking on her soft toys, I don’t want to introduce any soap into her system. So, if we do use soap, will it wash out in the rinse cycle even though the toy is very pretty thick with material (i.e. a fuzzy bear, etc.)?

My skin is always very dry regardless of how much i lotion my skin and no matter what types of lotions i try (i.e. oatmeal, baby lotion, ect.). What can i do that involves household stuff? Like stuff i can find in my kitchen?

Last night I used veet on my legs and i think i mightve gone a little over 10 minutes and now i have a rash. Then this morning I put on some johnson’s baby lotion. I was wondeing if using aloe vera would help and if not what would? The rash just looks like tiny pimples spread around (i know its pretty gross).
thanks in advance!

I use the johnson and johnson lavender bath and lotion on my 10 month old and there is nothing wrong with him. I believe there would be some kind of warning on the label if this was bad. I also don’t believe the product would be on the market if this was the case.

my hair is a little dry and frizzy… do u think baby shampoo will make it soft? PLZ DO NOT SAY REDKEN, MATRIX, NEXXUS, PANTENE PRO-V, HERBAL ESSENCES, GARNIER FRUCTIS, SUNSILK, ETC…. lol thx. =]

please dont give me names of lotions ect..
just tell me should I be using a lotion before or after the baby powder or is using baby powder just alone after bathing or showering okay?

I was told that it can be harmful to a baby boy to use lavendar scented lotion. Is this true? If so, what are the effects.

Just curious? My son is 13 months old and we’re still going through all his baby washes that we got as gifts. Is there a time when I should stop using them? Or does it really matter at all?

My son is 6 weeks old. So far all I have used on him is Johnson’s Baby Wash. I would like to start using other baby products. Is now a good time to try them or is it better to wait?
