Does it affect the baby if they take baths all the time since birth?

Patient's question:

My baby is 1 year and 8 months old. Since his birth, his grandfather has always given him a bath with water at 47 degrees. Does this have any effect on him? Should it be corrected in a hurry? Suggestions and guidance are appreciated.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, it's good to bathe a newborn every few days, with water temperature around 38 degrees Celsius. Based on your situation, prolonged hot baths at 47 degrees Celsius are very hot and it's essential to be cautious to prevent burns. The above advice is for the question "Does bathing my 1-year-8-month-old baby since birth have any effects?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
