Olive Oil Bath

[Miaow]

Had a midwife visit yesterday and as Elysha has had really dry skin, she suggested a good idea was putting a little olive oil in with her bath.

I have to say that her skin is so much better today and she really enjoyed the bath though bathing an oily baby is in my opinion like trying to hold a slippery eel :p

Just thought I'd pass on the tip:)

I have always used olive oil on my sons skin because thats what mum did with me as a baby and I have great skin.
I tried the bath thing and always felt like I was going to drop him so I just rub him down with it after the bath at night (quick bath in morning though if we are going to be out in sun all day) I have done this since he was born 12 months ago and his skin is looking good
