Bath time with your baby
How to top and tail a newborn, run a safe bath, care for delicate skin and choose the right baby bath, so bath time feels calm and safe from the very first splash.
- Never leave your baby alone in the bath, even for a second. If the doorbell rings, wrap them in a towel and take them with you.
- Aim for warm, not hot: around 37 to 38C. Run the cold first and check with your elbow or a bath thermometer.
- Your newborn doesn't need a daily bath. Two or three times a week, with topping and tailing in between, is plenty.
- Plain water is all your baby's skin needs for the first month. No bubbles, soaps or lotions.
- Bath seats and supports are not safety devices. Babies can drown in less than 3cm of water.

If you’re trying to conceive (TTC), you probably know that there are certain foods and nutrients that become especially important once you’re pregnant. But nutrition plays a vital role even when trying to conceive, much like laying a strong foundation before constructing a house.
Certain nutrients create that foundation by supporting egg and sperm health (yes, nutrition matters for both partners), hormone balance and creating a hospitable environment for a fertilized egg to implant. In fact, studies show that certain nutrients can help increase fertility and improve success rates for both natural conception and fertility treatments.
In other words, nutrition is a key player in the TTC journey, but getting the right nutrients in the right quantities can be tricky. That’s where supplements come in. Just as you’d take a multivitamin to fill in nutritional gaps for optimal health, fertility supplements can give you that extra nutrient boost.
