Ohh thy say that powder makes baby skin very dry and there might be few particles in the powder which inhaled by the baby may cause breathing problems and hence use of powder should be avoided completely.
But i hear frm elders that atlst during this summer v shld use powder esp aftr changing the diapers. I am juz confused.

Actually doctor says this because if the powder inhale by the baby it may cause lungs Cancer somtimes. Not to worry at all, you can use powder by firstly take it on your finger tips or palm and after that apply on your baby's skin.
