How often you should bathe your baby depends on his age. It is enough to wash your baby twice or three times a week will be enough as long as the diaper area is kept clean and you wash his hands and face a few times a day.
You could wash your baby whenever you want, but bathing before bed will relax your baby and prepares him for sleep. You shouldn’t bathe your baby just before or after feding; he may be uneasy when hungry and may vomit when full.
