Wrap baby head with cloth
My baby is 16days old via c section. Some people are advising me to tie a cloth around the head of the baby. In veracity, i think this is of no substantial use except that it will put unnecessary pressure on the head and may be a source of baby’s discomfort. Am i correct? Or is tying a cotton cloth around his head beneficial?
