A. After massages u can take ur baby for bath Or even some mother do massage and bath in bathroom only Always remember Massage should not be more than 4-5 min Bath ur baby immediately after massages and clean dry immediately Wrap properly And let him or her to sleep if Baby wants to sleep. Sleep after bath is so important Bcz this sound sleep help to increase the weight of baby. and You can use any brand coconut or pure almond oil /olive oil /ayurvedic massage oil All baby brands are equally good and effective for bone growth and muscle strength. (Himalays, baby Dove, mothercare, Dasapushpam, Johnson, chicoo, mamaearth, dabur lal tail, sebamed, Patanjali shishi care, Figaro etc  ) Do Massage well ur baby every day before bath  Once a day massage is enough for babies at this age.   4-5 min massage is enough for baby at this age.

A. You can give even daily or on alternate days. Actually There is no specific age to stop massaging. U can continue it as long as ur baby enjoys it. May be as the baby grows older u can reduce the frequency like on alternate days or twice in a week etc.
