I remember when the MCHN came out to our house when Mackenzie was 2 days old and told me not to use any J & J products or soaps on her skin. She actually told me to throw them out. I have only ever used water on her (she has very mild eczema and I've had it all my life) in the bath and I put sorbolene on her when she gets out and this seems to have worked well. Just a side point - I did notice that the new huggies wash states on the back not to be used without consulting your doctor if your child has asthma - in very fine print. Not sure why but asthma and eczema seem to go hand in hand so i've stayed away from that too. For massaging I always used organic olive oil - the same stuff I cook with. If you use cooking oil stay away from the nut oils (peanut oil etc) incase your little one has a nut allergy. Good luck!
