    Johnson's baby oil

    Hi frndz,

    Can you please suggest me about applying Johnson's baby oil(not Johnson's hair oil) to hair and give a small massage to my 7 month old baby?

    Hi Archana,

    You can apply Johnson's baby oil for the body.

    For the hair you can use warm coconut oil in the winter.

    Hiii, I have used a mix of almond oil and olive oil. I could massage my kids until they learnt to rollpver on their own. Dont worry, it wont cause cold, its infact a very nice way of bonding, skin to skin contact always sooths the baby and the mother. Enjoy these blissful moments now :) Before you realise, your baby would roll away, No oil amma :)

    Hi Sanka sailaja...
    Many readers have posted their opinion that on using olive oil babies have turned a shade darker...
    In my house we used good old coconut oil in which a clove of garlic is burnt and lukewarm oil is used for massaging....
