I know it’s a technique to stop the baby being afraid of getting water on their face, the point is that it should not be done until baby is at least one month, and Ryder was a newborn when they were pouring water over his face.
- Wash the baby's head last with shampoo on a washcloth. Rinse, being careful not to let water run over the baby's face. Holding the baby firmly with your arm under his or her back and your wrist and hand supporting his or her neck, you can use a high faucet to rinse the hair. (If you are using a spray attachment with the faucet, be sure the water in the sprayer is warm.)
Between 1 and 3 months: Introduce Water on the Face
As Molly grew from newborn to infant, I gradually introduced gentle sensory experiences in the water, including the feeling of water on her face. Too many swim students have come through my swimming classes who cannot put their faces in the water, and it’s a problem.

Infant Bathing Techniques, Part 3: Put Water on Baby’s Face
A baby or toddler who is comfortable with water on her face has an additional tool to use to self-rescue when she inevitably loses her footing while playing in shallow water.pool-mom.com
Maybe he wasn’t newborn. If the feijoa salad was him (and she lied about the second miscarriage) then he would have been about a month when he got this done. Another clue perhaps he is older than they shared?It is easy to alter a fake birth certificate- my friend got married before she had her baby and didn’t want her parents to know. At the wedding a year later she used a colour photocopy of the marriage certificate with everything blanked out to sign so her parents were non the wiser they’d married months ago.
