A. There is no need to massage the baby 5 times in a day once a day massage is enough and be gentle while massaging and start it once the naval heals completely

A. Hi parent as per your child age I suggest you , you can give daily massage with coconut oil once a day five times is to much for new born baby it is not advisable please give plenty of breast feeding to your child when you're child is demanding
