Bathing a baby

This has probably been done to death

But how often do you or did you bathe your young baby?

My DD is 8 weeks, we have been doing once a week. She has really lovely skin, my first DD1 had very spotty peeling skin and I tried not to bathe her too much because it was so sensitive, this time it's more because she's number 2 and I feel like I'm constantly playing catch up.

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I also have an 8 week old. I give her a bath about 3 times a week with just water. Not sure how this compares to others!

When my DD was a newborn we did once a week or once every couple of weeks but did top and tail every day. Now she’s a messy toddler it’s every day 😂
