Toke Makinwa Warns Against Daily Newborn Baths, Sparks Debate

Nigerian media personality Toke Makinwa cautions new mothers to reconsider bathing their newborns daily, emphasizing that babies do not need to be bathed every day as their skin is delicate. Makinwa, who recently welcomed her first child at 40, explains that babies are naturally clean and do not require daily baths.

She suggests gently wiping the baby instead of washing daily to avoid potential skin issues. Makinwa's advice has generated mixed reactions on social media, with some questioning her expertise in offering such guidance to mothers.
