A. You can use desi ghee on alternate days for nourishing as natural ingredients but for daily nourishment you can use Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion for baby's skin. Apply it after bathing on body to keep the skin nourished and hydrated. It is extracted from oatmeals which is good for skin nourishment.

A. It is good to apply ghee and coconut oil for babies. But it is sticky and leaves smell after bathing also. So baby’s feel irritated. Use Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion. It has non greasy formula and absorbs into skin. It keeps baby’s skin hydrated for 24 hours.

A. Doctor, after my normal delivery my health was not good, so we had to start my baby on formula milk. Now my breastmilk supply is still low, and even when there is some milk, my baby is not able to suck properly. Could you please guide me on how to increase my milk supply and help my baby start breastfeeding again?

A. Ghee would be sticky and leaves smell better to use mild chemical free Lotion like Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion, its safe and gentle for newborn skin also keeps skin moisturized for long hours.

A. For new borns go for gentle body wash and lotion to keep their skin moisturised. Use Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Wash that cleanses baby skin and gives light and fresh fragrance. Also use Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture lotion that moisturises baby skin for long time.

A. Ghee is definitely a very good option for you to use on the skin of the child if it suits there is no two doubts about it but yes coconut oil I will not suggest you right now because in winters can create acute dryness in the skin so avoid coconut oil because of this reason you can use mustard oil you can use almond oil and when you look for other products to be used including oil on the skin you can try baby hug
