Skin is a barrier that provides protection from infection, helps control body temperature, and prevents water loss. A preemie is at a greater risk for infection and the loss of heat and water through the skin. That's why it's important to keep your preemie's skin healthy and intact. A premature baby's skin is not as fully mature as a full-term newborn, so a preemie's skin needs extra care. Delicate skin is at risk for injury from tape, electrodes, and adhesives. And, it's more sensitive to irritation and breakdown from the chemicals in soaps, detergents, or lotions. website https://www.beborganic.com/
