Is it okay to use Kleenex to wipe my 3 month olds mouth?
I ask because if it’s not a kitchen towel it’s Kleenex my MIL reach’s to clean her mouth of spit up instead of using the burp cloths I have bought.

I would say refrain from the kitchen towel more than a Kleenex if it’s been used due to the bacteria. But if it’s a new Kleenex I don’t see the problem

We use Kleenex to wipe our baby’s mouth cause it’s just convenient as it’s always nearby

Ugh kitchen towel makes my spine crawl.
Fresh Kleenex is fine by me. Heck, I've probably even used a clean corner from a tissue I've blown into already from time to time.
We also keep a roll of TP at his changing table for spitups, "specials", and XL poo cleanups.
