Mom of a 4 yr 5 m old girl4 years ago

Q.

I am a new mom.No experience with babies.I have some doubts. 1. When and how often should use hair oil? Daily or weekly and should wash hair after applying oil? 2. How often should use baby cream,baby lotion,baby soap/wash ? 3. Baby's forehead sweats but hands and legs are cold. Should I cover baby or fanning ? 4. Should I wash hair with plain water daily or with shampoo only once weekly ? 5. She sneezes daily 5-8 times daily without running nose. Is it normal or she catches cold?? Please advice.

A. 1) wash hair twice a week.. post head bath apply oil. 2) apply lotion once in a day.. if she has dry skin can apply twice. 3) babies have immature nervous syster and it get while to able to control temperature fully .around 9 months they seem to regulate temperature better. Over dressing may be the cause behind this..wear loosly fitted Cotton cloth. 4)wash hair twice a week with shampoo. 5) avoid cold wind cold climate.
