Your query regarding massaging is unclear. Better is warm water Avoid it going into the mouth. For any queries, book an online consultation with me. I am a lactation consultant, IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding) nutrition expert with an interest in Childhood Infections and Vaccinations. Take care!

Coconut oil massage is good. Can give bath with hard water, if not an option. Lotion is upto you. Less use of cosmetic products better it is.
