Cleaning between LO's toes!?

LO has had lots of baths, and I wipe her feet everyday... but the other day I saw some fluff between her toes. Upon further looking, she had baby toe jam between every toe!! I felt like a bad mom that she wasn't clean but who knew you had to get a q-tip to clean between baby toes?! Haha.

  • I don't know what Colton does with his feet, but he got a bath yesterday morning and by midafternoon he toe jam was back! He gets it in between his fingers also.

    It is ridiculous how much "dirt" gets under there!

    Yeah, totally just spent ten minutes this afternoon cleaning between her toes, having never realized how gross they were prior. It's like I forget sometimes that it's MY job to take care of these things. If I don't do them, how do I think they will get done.

    OMG yes! I don't know what she gets under there.. it's not like she's playin in the dirt or anything! I don't even know how to get them clean because they're so tiny and fragile!

    Yes! We have to use his baby hairbrush as a nailbrush during baths!

  • and the armpits.  we're first time parents, and it took us about 3 weeks to realize we needed to lift her arms up completely and really get in there when we wash her.  she raised her arms up on the table once and was full of armpit jam and lint.  felt like horrible parents :(

    The neck rolls are challenging too... she's got 2 chins and numerous neck folds and things just seem to collect in there on a daily basis!!

    Can you imagine how dirty they'll get when they start crawling - this is without them moving!
