Does my newborn need a daily bath?
Not at all.
You can start bathing your baby once or twice a week, after his umbilical cord stump dries up and falls off. Before that, you just need to wash him with a soft cloth/ sponge. As for the daily baths, they may be quite fine for him a few months afterwards, though not necessary.
Here you can find all that you need to bath your baby safely.
