it really depends on you i guess. How ever many times you want too.
My daughter is 4 months old and gets a bath every night. it's part of her bedtime routine. It's been that way since she was a month old. It helps relax her and makes bedtime a lot easier.

You really only NEED to do it a couple times a week, and then make sure you wash his diaper areas daily and just kind of wipe him/her down with a soft washcloth.
I've bathed my baby every day since he was about a month old because he loves the bath...some people say not to do that because it can dry his skin out, but I've never had that happen. I found it was a nice routine to get into every night because he started expecting his pajamas and nighttime bottle right after his bath so it was easier to get him to bed.

I only those days began bathing my daughter each and every night. She is 4 months previous. i could say i began at 3 months. i began giving her baths at 7:30 each and every night as a results of fact the beginning up of our bedtime habitual. It has worked out splendidly btw. Oh yet even although I provide her a bath each and every night now, I nevertheless dont provide her a "finished" bath. I in undemanding terms wash her hair ever different night, specially circumstances 2x a week. I wash her another day and on the choice days I wipe her sparkling yet only with a moist textile and water. too plenty cleansing soap and shampoo can dry out toddler epidermis and deliver approximately cradle cap.. even on the exterior--and that stuff is gross to verify and get rid of! so which you're superb in bathing her as quickly as a week yet once you're arranged to make certain a night habitual i could tremendously recommend the tub as area of it. whether you do no longer wash her "totally." wish all it is wise! have relaxing!

There's no need to give your newborn a bath every day. In fact, bathing your baby more than several times a week may dry out his or her skin. If you're quick with clean diapers and fresh burp cloths, you're already cleaning the parts that really need attention — the face, neck and diaper area.

Every 2 or 3 days should be plenty. You can sponge bath in between and still keep them clean.

Every night. Just becareful of cradle cap, you don't want to wash your babies hair every night. Just go over it with a wet wash cloth. And just pay attetion to how your baby reacts to it. How your baby skin looks and everything. Make sure to use lotion afterward. Please don't believe all that mumbo jumbo about not giving a baby a bath but just once a week. That's really gross, and the poor child sits in caped on urine all week. Even if you just wipe the baby down, they're not clean!!!

Once daily is sufficient unless he/she urinates all over or vomits. If that is the case, a sponge bath is needed. Bedtime is the best time to bathe a baby. That allows them to completely relax.

It depends...
Where do you live?
In my country, a tropical one we bath the babies twice a day.
Once in the morning for the baby to start the day as we all do... fresh and clean...
In the night we bath them to give them a relax and fresh change after a day in bed or in some one s arms. We believe they sleep better after a bath

Talk to your baby's doctor. Most recommend only about 3 times a week if you live in a dry climate. Otherwise...when they make a mess of themselves or are cranky and cannot be settled down (bath often calms them),

My doctor told me no more than 3 times a week, or you will dry out their skin. Until my son was 6 months old he bathed only once a week, 2ce if he wasn't feeling well.

at least wash them with a warm cloth every day---they sleep better, nurse better, etc when they are clean and comfortable. Personally, I'd fill up the sink every night and wash them, but at the very least, wipe the baby down with the cloth and bathe them in the sink at least every other day.
