A. You are doing everything right. Just maintain good hygiene. Clean the room properly. In a week mosquito spray should be use in room especially curtains , behind the bed and other areas. Keep the baby for outdoor for sometime at the time of spray.

A. Instead of applying a repellent creme or spray I use a mosquito net which is like an umbrella that covers the bed or the area baby lies in. It is readily available in market. It keeps mosquitoes at bay and also no tension about safety on baby's skin. As for the scars if you are still breast feeding apply your milk on it, it does wonders. If not apply coconut oil.

profile image of KaveriKaveriMom of a 7 yr 3 m old child7 years ago

A. The only best way I know to prevent mosquitoes is to close windows or put net on windows from 5 pm onwards till 8 am. Use mosquito nets for your baby and yourself. Don't use any artificial fragrances or smoke near babies. Good knight etc add extra protection but not a complete one. For scars, I have always used Patanjali Aloe Vera or Coconut oil. No other lotion. But I do use Himalaya Baby Lotion in general.
