A. I would suggest you to avoid the use of talcum powder to a child as this causes block of sweat ducts pores and hampers sweating which is very important for thermoregulation

A. So I have heard a few things about baby powder. One is the talc powder is not good for the tiny little lungs of our babies, one of the reason JNJ went out of business. Second my doctor asked me not to use powder on neck and the small little tires as it will create boils. I think careful choice and usage is the answer. Personally I would avoid it.

A. No it isn't good for skin. Not only for babies but for adults as well. It is not recommended to use powder because it blocks the skin pores, which can lead to rashes and other skin issues. Avoid it as long as you can

A. yes it is good. only thing is that you will have to maintain hygeine during massage and bath. generally powder gets accumulated in the neck and it causes problem. so if you are using powder keep on checking the folds on the body of baby
