A. hi, you can do sponge bath.. also it's good to do like warm mustard oil massage to your baby.. Mustard oil has medical & antibacterial properties. Its a safe & effective way to cure cough & congestion in children. Put one or two garlic cloves in mustard oil and heat the oil. Once the oil is lukewarm, rub it on baby’s chest & feet. Warmth & smell of mustard oil helps to get quick relief from nasal congestion and cough & cold. consult with paediatrician once.

A. Experts recommend sponge baths for newborn babies whose umbilical cord stumps have not yet fallen off and babies having cold and fever.Sponge baths are also a good option for boys who haven't fully healed from circumcision. Keep in mind that daily baths aren't necessary, and could dry out his delicate skin.
