  Because they have sensitive skin and the chemicals in sunscreen could make them break out/be absorbed into their system.

  My pedi said no sunscreen until 6 months.

  I thought there were specific baby ones to use because of sensitive skin and to use ones that are just blockers.

  ETA: They all block.  I mean physical blockers, not chemicals.

  I don't have an answer but a thought, chemicals.

  No clue.  We were told no sunscreen until 6 months.  We didn't go out much last summer.

  I have recently read that it is ok to put some on their face but keep the rest of them covered with light clothing. I *think* I read this in Parents magazine. I would definitely check with the pedi first.

  I'm glad you asked this. I had no idea. Someone gave me sunscreen at a shower and I was fully planning on using it this summer for LO.
