This may seem like a silly question to most, first time momma here: my 4 month old son drools constantly. We change his bib 10-15 times a day. His chin and lips are getting super dry. Should I be using non scented, non flavored Chapstick on his lips or Vaseline? And for dryness of the face due to saliva, Vaseline or baby lotion? Thank you in advance!!

He could be teething

Yes, he is. None popping through yet, but is pedi says they're coming. But he's not in pain or crying so I'm not concerned with the actual drool itself, just what I should do about the dry skin :) @theirmommy_2

He's just teething....the luxury of babies.....stock up on those bibs.....or look into the plastic type bibs so they don't get as soaked

Aquaphor for babies works great

I would use Vaseline for the dry lips though....get an old/empty Chapstick and put some Vaseline in it and freeze it so it becomes like another Chapstick and carry it with u....Vaseline safes all chap 😂😊
