A. massaging you baby with coconut oil will really give you good results and even for the hairs coconut are been proven to be the best option.. but the new born baby's skin is immature in nature so you may find some heat boils or rashes on his or her skin after the application of coconut oil but don't get nervous... that particular rashes will go out.. once the baby skin will get accustomed to the coconut oil..

A. babies skin is very sensitive so any oil, cream, lotion or soap u are using should be mild. also oils do not lighten complexion but held in making skin moisturised and smooth, also massage is required to give strength to bone and muscles. I personally prefer extra virgin olive oil or virgin coconut oil.
