What. Is it okay to put deoderant under a(n) 1y.olds arms or no? Because i was babysitting my neice and when i pickd her up,it felt like she was sweating.

No, deodorant doesn’t stop sweating. We all sweat weather we want to or not. Deodorant was made to mask the smell, so that others cannot smell it. A baby doesn’t need deodorant because their sweat doesn’t smell, also if it did smell a bit, who cares? They are a baby, not going on a date :P

oh okay, thanks i will just dab a little baby powder under her arms next time.

lol no it didnt smell i was just worried cus i wasnt sure what to do but thanks tho!

Okiedoke, But yeah it’s totally normal. You don’t need to do anything about it. Just make sure she is bathed every day and isn’t getting too hot in her clothes :)

what about using lighter clothes,fan or a bath? Using a deodorant is not a wise step because they have strong fragrance which are not good for babies,babies are sensitive and we HAVE to use sensitive things for them.it will ofcourse not help in sweat much,but you can use a baby powder for her.

No….deoderent isn’t for making you stop sweating, it’s to lessen body oder….babies don’t need it.

yes it is okay and it does stop some sweating and some babies do stink

most deodorants dont stop sweating unless it says anti-perspirant on the deoderant however there really isnt a need to de-sweat a baby, just because they sweat doesnt mean they stink, so theres no reason to. Dont do it, babys skin is sensitive and you dont want nasty chemicals under her arms at this age anyway

sorry i just had to add this. but some deodorant can stop some sweating. if you buy clinical protection deodorant it prevents most of the sweating.
