A. There is no harm in using it but as it is summer the baby might get irritated because of the oil and you have to make sure that you bathe the baby properly because if the oil gets pent up it might cause acneWrite Your Answer Here

A. Hi yes you can use. Virgin coconut oil is best for babies. Which keeps the skin nourished and also helps in body growth. Since it is summer it is good to use every day and massage and give bath. Use mild baby bath and after bath make sure to apply body lotion. Use moisturiser twice in a day once in the morning after bath and once in the night before putting baby to sleep. Use luke warm water to give bath avoid using hot water and powder. Use soft cotton clothes. Give adequate liquid and keep your baby well hydrated.Write Your Answer Here
