Hi Ladies! I'm an RN on a L&D floor collecting data on newborn baths. When did your child receive his/her initial newborn bath? Thank you!

Within 3 hours after we got settled in our room

Within half an hour of her birth, in the delivery room.

In the hospital and in my room with me. She was born at 3am and had her bath sometime the next afternoon.

Probably about 6 or 7 hours after birth.

At one week old. LO was cleaned in the diaper area and we used a damp cloth to help with any spit up but she didn't need one before then. Too much good stuff on her skin when she was born.

At the hospital...about 10 hours after birth.

At home.... 4 days old

The same - about a week.

Our daughter received her first bath when she was eight days old. We had a home birth and decided to let the wonderful vernix on her skin soak in. Today, at 24 days old, we bathe her in water (no soap, no need as it dries out babies' skin) every two days.

He was born at 1130 at night then had a bath at 6am the following day.
