How to clean baby's ears?

Your baby's ears are fragile and require gentle care. How do you go about it?

  • Like all baby care, ear cleaning should be done when your baby is relaxed.
  • After the bath, lay your little one on the changing table and gently hold their head on one side.
  • Use a small amount of cotton or a compress soaked in saline solution.
  • Avoid cotton swabs, they can hurt your baby's eardrums.
  • Ear hygiene is essential, but limit it to 2 to 3 times a week to avoid irritation.

I did my daughter I think after her first shots I can't really remember but you should see if someone with a real piercing gun can come to your home instead of Claire's all they doing is pushing the EARRING through the skin

You don’t. You clean the outside and whatever wax you can get. You don’t use q tips cuz you can damage their eardrums by going too deep or by pushing back the wax and it piling up

She failed her first hearing test!🥺 They said that there might possibly be fluid from birth so they are going to clean her ears again and do another test at 12

Good burping position for those who struggle with the basic ones. No pat, the pressure from your chest and hand should push it right away, if not, get your baby relaxed and support the butt. Quick tip: take a warm wet washcloth and clean behind the ears and back of the head and hair, they tend to spit up during naps. #burping #clean #happybaby #bettertogether
