Washers vs. sponges for bathing newborn, baby

We know how stressful the first bath of a newborn baby can be for parents. However, we have a small solution to make our baby's bath go smoothly. It is worth stocking up on essentials that will make baby care easier, such as a baby wash. This is especially important in the newborn and infant period, when our baby has hard-to-reach folds that require more care. Special attention must be paid to these areas, as dirt and cosmetic residues like to accumulate there. A practical product that will make grooming easier will be various types of baby washers. It is worth remembering to purchase them already when completing the layette for the newborn. The washer is perfect not only for bathing, but can also be used to wash hands and face, for example, after eating during the day.

Baby washers - types

There are different types of baby washers on the plaster. Popular are both those resembling a glove or in the form of a sponge. Also they come in different materials, such as terry cloth or bamboo viscose with a touch of cotton. These washers usually come in the form of a fingerless glove, which the parent puts on his or her own hand and can precisely wash the baby by reaching hard-to-reach places like the aforementioned skin folds. A newborn baby wash allows for gentle washing. The washes are available in a wide range of colors. The terry cloth washer is soft and gentle, while the viscose bamboo washer, in addition to its softness, still has antibacterial properties and is ideal for toddlers with sensitive skin. In addition, the flannel can be washed and thus get rid of bacteria and microorganisms.

Advantages of baby washers
- perfectly wash hard-to-reach parts of the baby's body
- easy to keep clean, through the possibility of washing
- made of materials that are gentle for the skin of the newborn and baby

Baby bath sponge or baby wash?
For a slightly older child, a baby bath sponge is just as often used by parents. The disadvantage of the sponge is that it cannot be washed, making it necessary to replace it more often.
