Hygiene of children: when to switch to ordinary soap

My daughter has always had sensitive skin and even today it is no longer the tiny wash with a mild detergent for sensitive skin of those who also use the mothers of newborns bath. Some parents are wondering when and whether to switch to ordinary soaps that we use adults.

I pediatricians say not to use “never” ordinary soaps because they contain strong surfactants that create foam, deodorants that are used to eliminate body odor, and various scents.

Children and babies do not need this because they cause irritation and other allergic reaction to their delicate skin. If the baby no longer wears diapers, always use the soap with a neutral pH to maintain the balance of the skin, until puberty, because even if we use a mild soap (called “soap as soap”) shall not affect some of its delicate skin . I understand that the foam is a source of fun and games for them but I would avoid.

Pediatricians emphasize that it is not necessary to create foam to wash the baby, and simply use the specific cleaner for the parts that get dirty more like armpits, feet, knees and head. So I advise you not to rush to change the soap to the children. When in doubt, I will continue to use the more neutral for my daughter for a while ‘.
