A member asked:

I feel stupid asking, but i'm a 1st time mom. do you clean in between the labia at diaper changes, or leave that area mostly alone unless she has a big blow out that requires more cleaning? i'm afraid of giving her a uti if i don't clean it properly?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Caring for newborn ?: Whether or not an explosive bowel movement has occurred in your newborn, it is best to gently clean the folds of the external vagina with warm saline (salt water) when a diaper change is performed.
