The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends against using baby powder because of the risk of respiratory problems. Baby powder can cause breathing trouble and serious lung damage if a baby inhales the particles. And the particles are small enough that it's hard to keep them out of the air during use.This is especially true of talc-based powders, with their small, easily inhaled particles.f your baby isn't at high risk and you decide to use powder, do so sparingly. Put the powder on your hands first, away from your baby, not directly on or near her. Keep the powder container well out of reach of her and of any older siblings, too.
