Fasten any buttons or zippers gently. br br ✅ Extra Tips: br br Keep the baby calm by talking, singing, or maintaining eye contact. br br Bathing 2–3 times a week is usually enough for young babies. br br Use non-slip surfaces and keep a firm grip—wet babies are slippery! br br Don't forget to subscribe, like and make a comment.
