Q. Can I put lotion on my baby’s dry skin?
Sure. Just be sure it is perfume-free and dye-free.
Most newborns have dry skin from swimming around in water (technical term: amniotic fluid) for nine months and they are just exfoliating. But, if you really feel compelled to do something, we personally recommend hydrated petroleum jelly (Creamy Vaseline or Cerave are examples of brand name products). When it comes to dry skin, the greasier the better.
