About Baby , 101 : The vernix caseoleum .

When a baby is born there is a coating of thick , viscous , white matter on the skin . This is called the vernix caseoleum . This layer protects the skin from temperature , moisture loss and from infections . This layer should be kept on as much as possible . Do not bathe the infant . Let the infant crawl in to it's mothers' arms and hold it .

Do not bathe .
