A member asked:

Is it ok if i would take my 2 month old baby swimming in the beach/pool?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: It is ok for beach and pool. Close supervision. Shade hat and sunblock remember even under umbrella the sand and water reflects. Try sunblock on just the forearm for 24 hrs before putting on the rest of body to ensure no allergies to it.
