Giving your baby a milk bath has long been a popular (and all-natural way) for soothing common skin issues ranging from dryness and diaper rash to acne and eczema. Don't worry—we're not suggesting that you dunk your babe in a tub filled to the brim with breastmilk. You'll only need a little bit of pumped breastmilk to transform baby's bath into a soothing, spa-like experience. That's really all it takes, because human breastmilk is positively packed with anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial properties.
