    I second the olive oil. That's all I used with DS for the first 6 months - both in his bath and on any dry skin. Anything else would bother his eczema (which has pretty much gone now! ).

    Oh, and then I discovered GAIA baby moisturiser - which I also love and also is great on his skin.

    Babies don't need anything for the first few months, their fragile skin is best washed with water and they don't get dirty anyway. All I reckon they need is nappy rash cream if needed!

    Read the back of bottles of baby products - if there ingredients there which you don't understand (i.e. scientific words) then it's not good for your baby. If you can't read it, don't buy it! J&J are the worst. Some of the above mentioned products (no offense intended!) are not that flash either...

    What are you feeding your family's skin?
