How often do you bath your baby?

We have been our little guy every other day, he sleeps really well afterwards. He gets lotion massages everyday. But the past week, he’s suddenly super dry and has red splotches. Talked to doctor, not allergies/eczema, advised to lotion twice a day.

Yeah we do lotion daily but a bath we started at twice a week and we will love to every other day once we hit 4 months

Every 2 days

Our doctor said we can shower daily if it helps him sleep, which it really does. We’re from Brazil, so we come from a 2 showers a day culture lol We only soap every other say because of the fragrance. We also use the lavender honest lotion daily. In my head I also feel like lotioning daily without at least having run some water that day is too much product build up for his skin. Aquaphor is really helpful to us for any dryness.

We do every other day as all of us have really sensitive skin and we get super dry easily. He hasnt experienced anything yet but im erring on the side of caution with him. And that's for like an actual soak bath in a tub, if he has a diaper blow out or something I do a sponge bath in between to just keep him fresh. So he gets a soak milk bath every other day but in between that time he'll get little sponge baths if I feel like he smells sweaty or milky lol

We bathe nightly for his bedtime routine but only use soap every 3-4 days! Every other day I just use water!
