What kind of oil is best for newborn massage?

Cold-pressed coconut oil is a popular choice for newborn massage, especially in warmer climates, as it is moisturizing without being overly greasy. Other commonly used options include olive oil or almond oil, depending on your baby's skin sensitivity and local weather. Always ensure the oil is natural and free from harsh additives, and perform a small patch test on your baby's skin before a full body massage.
