I have a 'thing' about oil. I can't bear to have it on my hands. Plus I am thinking all his clothes and blankets will get all greasy.
So will olive oil work as well if I put it on with cotton wool???
Also does it dry/sink into the skin after a while or will his clothes be really stained?
I know, I know I should put my babies skin before my silly hang ups, but I am really hoping there's an alternative.
I have done a search on here and some people said emmoliant cream or oilatum. Is this ok??
