A. Talcum powder consists of very fine particles which can be inhaled and can cause irritation to the baby's delicate lungs. Opt for cornstarch based powder as it has slightly large particles and hence difficult to be airborne. This reduces the chances of inhalation and has excellent absorption qualities too.
