      Yes, if the air is dry in the nursery, the baby can have problems with skin dryness and irritations. Moreover, if the baby has issues like eczema, the humidifier helps atone them. The build-up of mucus is also loosened, which helps the baby breathe better.

        I prefer to use air purifier instead. We already have high humidity here so I don’t think it is necessary to use a humidifier anymore.

              From personal experience, air humidifier when over exposed can make the skin of the baby dry. That’s why I make sure that my baby would apply moisturizer every night to avoid dryness of skin.

                We no longer use humidifier because of the rashes it can cause. However, as advised by the our doctor, when using humidifier you must also make sure that you are applying moisturizing lotion to your skin. I guess this is a way to avoid dry skin but, not really to avoid rashes.
