We asked our pediatrician this question and he said whenever and however often we wanted to. He said that babies don't really get dirty per say so if we don't bathe her everyday that's fine but that it was really our own personal preference.

Yes, every day. It is essential for a responsible adult to be as familiar as possible with the child's physical being, so that if anything out of order should develop, the child can be attended by a medical professional right away.

No! Bathing dries out the skin. I did it once or twice a week. Babies do not start to smell if they miss a day like adults..they dont have the mature glands to cause an odor yet.

Every day, babies should be treated the same way we treat ourselves as adults, when you take a bath you have that good clean feeling, a baby enjoys a bath everyday. I remember with mine it was bath everyday, they looked and smelled so good after a bath.

I bath my son everyday, at least once, more if his bowels are loose or if he wears most of his food.

I woudlnt do it everyday as their skin can dry out. I'd say every 2 or 3 days. Unless he is dirty lol.
