All babies in general do not have body odor, but a characteristic odor or known as 'milky'. But sooner or later someone may have body odor. Naturally the human body has 2.6 million sweat glands which release sweat every day. If someone makes a physical activity such as exercise, the sweat which issued will be more. Body odor released by the sweat called bromhidrosis.As quoted from HowStuffWorks, Sunday (29/08/2010) does not fully sweat causes body odor, because the bacteria that live on the skin of a person also contribute to the emergence of body odor. The bacteria that play a role in the case of body odor is being produced and appear after a person enters puberty. Age of puberty every person is different between men and women, and allegedly also influenced by race.
The human body has two sweat glands, the sweat glands Eccrine and apocrine sweat glands.Apocrine sweat glands.Sweat glands are located in the root of hair and fatty acids, proteins and thicker compared with Eccrine sweat glands. These glands are not removed to cool the body, but released when a person feels under pressure (emotional stress, physical stress and sexual arousal). Bacteria in the body will be attracted to fatty acids and proteins in the sweat released by the apocrine sweat glands. During bacterial processing of this substance, then the bacteria would produce a byproduct that causes body odor.Eccrine sweat glands.These sweat glands contain mostly water and salt and is part of the air conditioning system of the body, such as evaporation to keep the body cool. The baby's body must remain cool, so that this gland has begun to work long before the children reach puberty.Either of two types of perspiration glands in the skin. Eccrine sweat glands, controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, use evaporation to cool the skin by secreting water Pls body temperature rises. Apocrine sweat glands, usually associated with hair follicles, are concentrated in the underarms and genital region. Starting at Puberty, hormones stimulate Them to continuously secrete a fatty sweat. Certain specialized glands, Such as mammary glands and wax-secreting glands of the ear canal, probably developed from this type of gland.

When to form sweat glands on our baby? Apparently the second month of pregnancy, exactly six weeks.
