I agree with all of you.
Baby's skin are sensitive and tender, so, proper care is needed. so, baby's shampoo and soap is required at the time of bath and remember the water should be matches with your baby's body temperature because the hot water can cause the damage to the skin.
Apply a moisturizer on the baby's body. so that it loses its dryness and makes the skin soft and smooth.
