Cradle Cap

[squidipa]

It has also started to appear as an exzema(can't spell that word) on his forehead.
What to do?

yeah same with my bub but more like oil build up and in eyebrows too. sorry don't have any remedies to share battling this one too.. how do you do the paste treatment???

I mix up bicarb and olive oil until its a paste, slather it on, wait a while and then shampoo it off (rubbing quite briskly)

Worked with DS when I tried it - have yet to try it on Miss M cos I'm a bit lazy in my old age

from what i can remember cradle cap is caused by excess oil, depending on how you feel i used to wash my ds's hair in cedel family shampoo, and this worked realy well, it is medicated for dandruff, i only used a tiny bit and made sure not to get it in their eyes but like i said it realy works, got it from the supermarket.

I think you mix the bicarb soda and water into a paste, apply it on the head and leave it there overnight and wash it off the next day. She overheard me talking to the pharmacy assistant about what I can do and she suggested it. Said it doesn't hurt them and is great cos it is a natural remedy rather than using creams etc...
I think I will try it tonight and see what happens..I'm thinking it must dry on the scalp and help lift off the dead skin?
I will let you know!
