Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The effects of two different bathing methods given to healthy and term babies on the babies' stress level, physiological parameters (body temperature, pulse, respiration, O2 saturation), procedure time (bathing time), and calming time of the babies will be compared.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Healthy, term newborns will be divided into two groups, one group will be washed from body to head, and the other group will be washed from head to body, which is the traditional method. In the study, the stress levels of babies will be obtained by observing the newborns independently by two different observer nurses before, after and after the procedure, using the "Newborn Stress Scale", at the 5th, 15th and 30th minutes. Physiological parameters of the babies will be evaluated before the procedure, during the procedure, and at the 1st, 5th and 15th minutes after the procedure. Bathing will be done by the same person (researcher) for all babies in both the experimental and control groups.
Pulse oximeter and stopwatch will be used to measure physiological parameters (heart rate, oxygen saturation, calming time).

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
1st group babies where the head is washed first and then the whole body
The effects of washing the head first and then the whole body on the physiological parameters (oxygen level, pulse, body temperature, calming time, stress level) of the first group babies will be examined.
take a bath
The effects of two different bathtub bath methods on physiological parameters will be compared in babies divided into 2 different groups.
2nd group babies, where the whole body is washed first and the head is washed last.
The effects on the physiological parameters (oxygen level, pulse, body temperature, calming time, stress level) of the second group of babies, where the whole body is washed first and the head last, will be examined.
