Baby bath ear protector?

An ear protector is not necessary. A small amount of water getting into the baby's ear during bathing is normal and not harmful—because of the angled structure of the external ear canal and the eardrum, water does not penetrate inside. After bathing, tilting the baby's head to the side and wiping the ear with a soft towel is sufficient. Be careful not to insert cotton swabs into the ear.
If your baby has a ventilation tube (ventilation tube) in their ear or has a history of recurrent ear infections, consult your pediatrician to take special precautions—aside from this, a healthy baby does not need extra protective products.
