Greasy little ball of hiccups

She’s still so tiny, and the logistics of trying to bath her are confounding, but Trixie’s hair smelled really bad so her first hair-washing was deemed necessary. We stuck her in the giant blow-up duck beside the kitchen sink and started pouring warm water all over her. No major complaints from the kid, although she did get the hiccups halfway through.

The only real concern is that her head smells like we dipped her in a giant vat of chemicals. We used Johnson & Johnson’s baby shampoo and we used the pea sized amount, but it still smells strong. I think it bothers me more than it bothers her.

    Might I suggest not using shampoo on her yet, just plain old johnson’s baby bath works ok. http://www.johnsonsbaby.com/products/bath/baby-bath
