Navel Playing and brushing teeth

Recommended Posts

Hi,

My gal is 1yr 4mth. She has been playing with her navel ever since 1 yr old like scratching and touching contanstly while lying down is this safe?

When and how to teach our baby to brush his teeth? I already notice my gal had quite a number of teeth.

Re the brushing of teeth: I was told to start even before my baby starts teething in order to get them into the habit of brushing their teeth. So I guess you could start now since she already has a couple of teeth. It's never too late OR too early. :smile:

most probably got dry skin or dirt in the navel area. use some olive oil & rub the area to clean/moisturize the skin. if not, try to remind her not to scratch.

i only started my kid on his pigeon stage 1 toothbrush when he turned 1yo. i was kinda apprehensive about letting him poking himself in the mouth, reason being, my kid is really choh-loh kind, even with the plastic protector thingy, i am still hesitant.

now he's already on his stage 2 toothbrush and he does a good job cleaning his teeth on his own while i take my morning shower, he'll be busy at it (brushing his teeth for a good 10mins).
