1. Daily cleaning scenarios and frequency
When changing diapers:
After defecation: You need to thoroughly clean your buttocks every time, and wet wipes are a convenient choice. After carefully wiping, use a dry cloth or allow to air dry, then apply diaper cream.
After urinating: If the skin does not obviously stained, you can rinse with warm water or wipe with a damp cotton towel, to reduce the use of wet wipes, do not rub too vigorously.
Face and hands:
For daily cleaning (such as after feeding, drooling), warm water + soft cotton cloth is preferred. When going out, wet wipes can be used as an emergency, but avoid frequent wiping of sensitive areas (such as the mouth and around the eyes).
2. Precautions and alternatives
Signals of skin sensitivity: If rash, dryness or peeling occurs, stop using wet wipes immediately, use clean water instead, and consult a doctor.
Ingredient selection: Choose wet wipes without fragrance and irritating preservatives (such as MIT, phenoxyethanol). The simpler the ingredient list, the better.
Alternative method: When at home, you can use warm water + cotton balls/cotton wipes for cleaning, which is gentler and more economical.
3. Adjustment for special circumstances
When going out: wet wipes are convenient, but use dry wipes to absorb moisture as soon as possible after use to avoid damp skin.
Seasonal influence: Winter is dry, so apply baby moisturizer in time after cleaning; in summer, sweating can increase the number of cleanings, but pay attention to moisturizing.
4. The difference between newborns and older babies
Newborns (0-3 months): The skin is more fragile, so try to use more clean water, and wet wipes are only for emergency use.
Older babies (6 months+): More activities (such as eating complementary foods, crawling), the frequency of hand and perioral cleaning may increase, but skin tolerance still needs to be observed.
Summary and suggestions
Daily use times: There is no fixed standard, and the principle is "necessary cleaning". Usually about 5-10 times a day (depending on the number of diaper changes), but it can be reduced according to actual conditions.
Key principles: Avoid excessive cleaning, give priority to gentle methods, and always pay attention to skin reactions.
