Pediatrician Discusses: Prematurity, Premature Baby Care, and NICU

In honor of National Prematurity Awareness Month, I am teaming up with WaterWipes to educate you on prematurity.

Thank you WaterWipes for partnering with me to educate families in honor of National Prematurity Awareness Month. WaterWipes is clinicially tested to help against the causes of Diaper Dermatitis.* As a Healthcare Professional (HCP) and mom, I love using and recommending WaterWipes. WaterWipes water undergoes a 7-stage water purification process, which removes impurities, while softening and purifying the water. As well as being extremely gentle on babies’ skin, the result is a deeper and more effective clean as the water is able to reach pores and crevices that cooled boiled water can’t – without leaving a residue on the skin. It’s great for babies, especially babies with sensitive skin.
