The rule is that you bath your child according to the weather. You may choose to start anytime. By the way, it is not compulsory to bath the baby several times a day ... Once should be fine really... You can just use a Face towel to mop or use wipes in the afternoon or evening if just to make the baby cool

It is most likely an allergy...there are many things that anyone can be allergic to even food, water, cream, soap etc...It is better to see a Paediatrician or Dermatologist or Allergist if available where you are for a thorough evaluation to figure out which it is...the solution is usually avoiding the trigger for the allergies if possible. There are also some antihistamine and other allergy drugs that can help reduce the itching and symptoms

Please do not give your baby antimalarial drugs if they are not sick. Also, all medications should be prescribed by a doctor.
Unripe plantain? Why do you want to give? What is the mode of preparation? It may be too hard for infants to be able to eat and can lead to choking. Ripe plantain is fine
