Jus wanted to know till what age we should massage our baby.
Coconut oil for baby massage in winter.
Coconut oil is an excellent body moisturizer and is mostly used as massage oil for babies.
Some babies dont like mustard oil smell.
So prefer almond and coconut oil.
Not too many minerals are found in coconut oil but coconut oil is rich in iron.
I also used cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil in summer but i may use himalaya massage oil during winter as it has some blend of 3 4 oils including olive oil.
Once you have the oil ready you can start by applying some onto your baby s chest using upward strokes with gentle hands.
Coconut oil is colder in nature thus changes its texture during winters.
And olive oil may make baby s skin dark.
You can use almond oil any time.
These features make it an excellent oil for massages in the winter.

For summer you can use coconut oil.
