Brief Answer: congratulations Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for writing to health care magic. XXXXXXX baby products are safe . Though there has been some news reports few months back stating it is is harmful, we doctors do not find any scientific proof for the claim. The current products in the market ( shampoo, talc, lotion ) are all safe. You can use any of the two oils or baby oil for massage but make sure the oil does not enter ears nose or eyes.
