Need Some advice please - Back of babys ear smells!!
Hi girls
I really need some advice, I was cuddling my baby tonight and smelled a really weird not nice smell of the side of my babys head, this is the side he sleeps on, I thought it was his hair so I washed it but I could still smell a funny smeel and realised it was coming from the back of his ear, I bath him every night, what could this be is it anything to worry about??
My little boy will be 4 weeks old on Thursday
Thanks
Lynsey

Or as Palmtree said could be infection.
& now I know where saying 'wash behind your ears' comes from.. I always though Well of course you do when your washing your hair! but on babies you really have to cause the spend so much time on there back any sicked up milk dribbles down there face and collects there! lol lovely! x
