5. Check the temperature of the water with a bath thermometer or with your elbow to
make sure that it is the right temperature.
6. Never test the water with your hand since it could tolerate the water heater but would
burn the baby's skin. Moreover, don't add hot water while the baby is in the bath bowl,
because of the risk of scaling him/her.

10. Weep the baby with a bath towel putting the arm at the side.
