The loner again?

Second this my baby had it on 90% of her body. I cut out all dairy and wheat made a difference and also took her to salt rooms for a very long time. It’s a little bit pricey but I took her at least 4-5 times a week so worked out cost effective. Salts of the earth it was called in Victoria. Also keep lathering them up with cream don’t let them get dry. At her worst I was moisturising her every 20-30 minutes. We also had to go down the bleach bath route for a few weeks when it was really bad. My kids still use qv or dermaveen now in the shower. Some brands for moisturiser were cetaphil, avene, la Roche posey, I found worked well and to top it off I found a great naturopath that gave her some homeopathics that I believe truly helped. Also some baby probiotics get that gut health up from an early age. And yes don’t overheat bubz exczema babies are usually Burning in the inside

And to add. Stay consistent. It took me almost 4yrs to get rid of it completely. It starts to go away and you relax and then it creeps back in. It’s a viscous cycle

No not breastfeeding
He is on s26 original
Just atarted dremaid cream and qv moisturiser
Didnt realise i had to moisturise him so often
His cheeks and head are so scaly

You could also try changing the formula & see if that makes a difference. There is a formula based on goats milk. It’s a little more expensive, but worth a try.

Besides the eczema has he had any other issues with formula? Could be a dairy thing?? You might not have to moisturise that often my daughter was very severe. Just try not let him get too dry that’s when it starts getting dry and itchy

U might have to use a steroid cream for a few days just to bring it under control. Elocon is probably the weakest of them and you could start with that

Good luck and I hope bub grows out of it. My daughter had it everywhere too. We moisturise everyday (still do) but for the real bad spots (knees and elbows) we use steroids. We tried natural but steroids were the only thing that works.

When she was young and scratched too much, we'd put socks/mittens on her and gave wet bandaged her.

Look at the allergy shop. They have clothes there too you can get.

We have tried many things, so good luck to finding the moisturiser for your bubs skin.

We use Epaderm Ointment. It's oily but it stays on. X
