    I tried everything with DDs, in the end i just covered her head in oil and got a nit comb and combed it out, her whole head was orange, she looked like she had bright red hair when infact she is almost white blonde! that was over a year ago and its just started to come back now! dont think she would sit still long enough for me to do it again now though!!!

    Make a paste out of bi carb soda and water. Apply it to bubs head and leave it to dry. Wash it out when you put bub in the bath and the cradle cap will wash out too. I have found this is the best solution for cradle cap and has worked on all of my kids. The bi carb in the bath also makes their skin extra soft too

    I'm trying the MooGoo - If that doesn't work, I'll try the bicarb paste - thanks!
