I’m looking for actual research regarding risks of applying sunscreen and/or bug spray on infants. I know people say you can’t before 6 months, but why? What are the risks? I hear a lot of people say that babies that young shouldn’t be exposed to the sun that long due to their inability to regulate their temperature but that doesn’t necessarily mean that sunscreen is harmful…(?)
I know you're looking for actual research, but if it helps, my pediatrician said to go light on lotions and sunscreens before sixth months bc they're still developing their natural skin barriers and that makes sense to me
