A. Hello good afternoon !! Yes kissing on baby lips,cheeks directly cause infection to baby. As baby's skin is so sensitive not suggested to touch without washing hands or sanitizing , kissing with lips. Discuss with your spouse and other family members about this and ask them to explain your mother in law in a positive manner like kissing directly might cause infection to baby.

A. hi no ,not that much harm but it is better to avoid. if your child looks happy healthy and active, gains enough weight, achieve age appropriate milestones then no need to worry about anything.
