Olive oil is an amazing baby oil replacement.

When I had my first son, my mother told me that my grandmother said not to use baby oil, Why use harsh perfumed product on a newborn child.  The ingredients are mineral oil and perfume.

Olive oil is nice and thick, using after a bath on a newborn and it will melt right into the skin. Give your newborn a nice massage, this is sure to help baby relax. Rub babies tummy to avoid future cramps. Add a generous amount into your palm and rub on babies scalp and face, this aids in the prevention of cradle cap and skin irritations. Even if your baby has hair make sure to put olive oil in and brush.
