Hi All,
I am surprised that any baby is bathed before the next day except where there is an infection identified e.g. HIV, hepatitis B or C.

The unit I have worked for over 28 years in a unit with a birth rate of 4000 and now > 5000 births per year as not bathed babies on the first day for at least 20 years, it could be much longer. Plus we have group bath classes so the parents can do the first bath with their baby.


There again we even let the cord stump get wet with the baths.

Gwen
