Bath time
is typically an enjoyable time for babies. The water. The
bubbles. The shampoo. However, not all babies enjoy bath time,
which can make the experience just as stressful for a parent.
However, the good news is that most problems related to babies
hating baths, can be solved! By following some guidelines
in bathing your baby, it can become as enjoyable for your
child, as using a marvelous chi
ceramic flat iron is for you:
1. The golden rule when bathing your
child is: never leave your baby unattended. That includes
when you need to turn off your chi turbo 7/10”. If you
must answer the phone or door, wrap your child in a clean
towel, and tote him or her with you. Make sure to use a dry
towel when the bathing is finished later.
1. Select as tub that makes your
baby comfy. The size should be ideal for your child. In addition,
either use a soft tub, or create the same effect by placing
a towel inside the tub.
2. Add a few inches of warm water
into the tub. It’s important that the water is NOT hot!
This is particularly important as children are more sensitive
to hot and cold temperatures, than adults are. To ensure that
the water isn’t too hot, make sure that your hot water
heater’s maximum temperature is 120 Fahrenheit (48 Celsius).
Also, you can use a bath thermometer to verify that the water’s
temperature is safe and comfy for your child.
3. The temperature of the room should
also remain warm, like warming up your chi
turbo hair straightener. This is because babies’
body heat escapes quickly. Babies can dread having their clothes
removed, so it’s important to talk or sing to them with
a soft voice, in order to keep them calm.
4. Bath toys and tub toys can also
put your child at ease, during bath time. The toys are colorful
and fun, to keep the child preoccupied during bath time
5. Use gentle, tear-free products
to clean the skin and hair of your baby. The products should
also be hypoallergenic, meaning that they tend to create less
allergic reactions.
6. Wash your child using a washcloth
that’s soft and warm.
7. Wash with shampoo last, to minimize
the amount of body heat that’s lost. About half of humans’
body heat escapes from the head. Some children hate getting
wet eyes. To prevent this from happening, slightly tilt the
child’s head backwards. Then shampoo the child’s
hair from the front of the head to the back. Your child will
enjoy shampooing as much as you enjoy your Flat
Irons.
8. When the bathing is done, wrap
your child in a towel that’s dry and warm; and then
dress him or her.
9. For babies who still hate bath
time, you can try a few additional methods:
• As long as you do periodic
“spot” clean-ups, it’s okay to bathe your
child every three days or four days.
• Wash and dry one body part at a time, then put a clean
piece of clothing on your baby.
• Wash your baby during your own bath time, before using
your chi ceramic flat iron. Hold your baby against your skin
and use a warm hand towel to wash him or her.
Though most babies enjoy bath time,
it can be a scary experience for others. It’s important
for them to lose these fears earlier, rather than later. By
following certain steps and using bath toys and tub toys,
bath time will become as routine as using your chi turbo hair
straightener. The only tears will be your own tears of joy.
