Using Baby Wash

When did you start using baby body wash? I heard to just bathe babies with just water for the first few months due to their sensitive skin...to not give them dry skin. What do you guys think?

I stated using Burt's bees baby line when she was about 1-2 weeks old. No issues and she needed it because her skin was super dry from not using anything.

We've been using aveeno calming body wash since the beginning but every other night.  The other nights we just use water.  I did wait until all of his dry baby skin fell off before using lotion,

We gave DS a sponge bath his first week home and have been using Aveeno body wash a couple times a week since then.

We started using it right away, but we only give DS baths a couple of times a week and use a very small amount of the body wash. DS hasn't had any problems with dry skin.

We use Burt's bees and we have since one week old. I didn't start using lotion on her until all her dry flakey skin fell off though.

We use Califirnia Baby brand Super Sensitive Body Wash and Shampoo about twice a week.

We use the Johnsons & Johnsons soothing lavender body wash and lotion every night. I also use aveeno sometimes.

Pretty much this. We just use the standard Johnson & Johnson body wash.

I'm using California Baby Super Sensitive wash (they sell it at Target)...

I was never told to use only water, and Johnson's really dried LO's skin and caused a rash. The California Baby is great though!
