Trish, how much bi-carb in the bath?? Elijah has dry yucky skin under his chin/neck and dermaveen isn't doing a thing and neither has pawpaw ointment or amolin. He has some cradle cap too, but I don't know how strong do I make the paste?? I have a friend who did this and it burnt her sons head so I've been afraid to try. Elijah has gorgeous hair and I don't want to burn it off.
I have no idea of the exact measurements, I used to just kind of pour some straight into the bath LOL! You could also try QV bath oil, I'm currently using it for DD and her skin is beautiful. Re: bicarb for cradle cap, I've never heard of it burning! I don't see how it could, it is sooo gentle. I used to just pour a pile (around a tablespoon or two?) into my hand, then add a tiny amount of water at a time until it became a paste that could be lathered onto his head. I left it on for no more than 5-10 minutes and then rinsed it off. I'm sure it will be safe for your DS if my MCHN recommended it
