The baby's skin is still very delicate. Using floral water may cause the baby unbearable pain and make the baby cry even more.

Secondly, babies may get prickly heat because their clothes are too thick and not breathable, so when babies get prickly heat, make sure to let the baby breathe. The baby's room should also be ventilated and kept cool as much as possible.
