    well, I tried the Bi Carb before his bath. He looked rather funny. I brushed his hair while he was in the bath and his head is now quite shiny. the cC is still there slightly, but no where near as pronounced as it was. I'll keep doing this for the next few days and see what results I get.

    I tell ya what. I got home after going to the gym and had another look at it after it had decent amount of time to dry. The Bi-Carb has performed an absolute miracle. His scalp looks sooo clean and the smell is completely gone.

    Thank you for that one Trish. I really appreciate it. Not a solution I was expecting by any means.

    Wouldn't that be about right? You spend more then $100 on expensive creams and the $1 packet from the supermarket does it?

    Glad it's working for ya!

    Yay! Goodbye cradle cap.

    DD has cradle cap on her eyebrows... does anyone know if it would be safe to use there. I haven't tried anything so far as I don't want to risk getting it in her eyes

    I'm pretty sure it would be safe to use bicarb on her eyebrows, it's pretty gentle stuff. If you make it into a paste, it shouldn't go into her eyes and then just rinse it off gently.

    Even if she gets a little in her eyes when rinsing, I don't think there are any issues. I used to put bicarb in DS2's bath water (another suggestion from my MCHN) because he had dry skin. It never affected his eyes when washing his face.
