  1. Baby Wipes for Premature Babies A premature baby’s skin is extremely sensitive and delicate and essentially lacks the barrier that helps the skin protect itself from external harm to the skin. A premature baby’s skin also tends to lose moisture quickly and due to this fact, the little one’s skin is more susceptible to stresses due to the environment or chemicals for the matter. The human skin essentially consists of three main layers: epidermis, dermis and the hypodermis. The skin of premature babies is slightly different though as it is still at its developing stage, especially when compared to full- term infants. This is why one needs to take special care when using baby care wipes on babies. However, it has been found that the baby cleaning wipes that are specially formulated for infants are extremely gentle and effective in cleaning the baby’s skin. A number of studies have been conducted in this regard, and a study, in 2009, specifically stated, when comparing the effectiveness of baby care wipes with the combination of water and cloth, that the usage of wipes actually helps shields the skin and creates a barrier that lowers the water loss from the skin and also balances the pH out effectively. Here are a few reasons why baby care wipes are better: The chances of your premature baby’s skin coming into contact with microbes present in the atmosphere are high, so to make sure that does not happen baby antibacterial wipes have been manufactured. Unlike water, baby cleaning wipes are specially manufactured to adjust the pH levels of the baby’s skin effectively. The normal pH of a premature baby’s skin helps protect the skin from various pathogens and even inhibits the enzymes that are present in faeces that end up breaking down the sensitives skin of the child.

  2. The least amount of friction you use when cleaning a premature baby’s skin the better because otherwise, you end up causing damage to the dermis. However, thanks to specifics emollient like substances that are added to baby care wipes, it helps you clean your baby’s skin with the least amount of friction.  With the whole cloth + water mixture, you need to have to at least use a bit of pressure to get a good cleaning which is not the case with baby wipes.  Nowadays, baby wipes which are alcohol free in nature are available in the market and this also makes sure that no harm comes to your premature baby’s sensitive skin. Water might be the elixir of life, but in this case it could very well end up harming your little one’s skin. In such situations, stick to using baby care wipes, and rest assured that your little one’s skin will be in safe hands!
