When should you not bathe the child?
Sunday, 28 January 2007

  1. DO NOT bathe your child after feeding. If child is not properly burp , it may cause the child to vomit and upset tummy
  2. IF your child is having a fever, it is best to bring the temperature down first by tepid sponging as prolonged exposure to cool environment may cause the child to shiver and thus cause hypothermia.
