How often should a 2-month-old baby bathe?

Regarding bathing frequency for a 2-month-old baby, the pediatric view is this: a daily bath is not necessary. Two to three times a week is sufficient, as frequent bathing can dry out the baby's delicate skin. On non-bathing days, cleaning the diaper area and wiping the face, neck, hands, and area around eyes and mouth is enough. Bath time should not exceed 5–10 minutes, and water temperature should be around 37°C. During the first 2–3 months, only sponge baths are recommended until the umbilical cord falls off. If the skin has dryness, redness, or eczema, reduce bathing frequency and consult your pediatrician.
