    Cradle cap?

    Ok im sure there are plenty of treads on this but ive searched and cant find one

    Milly has cradle cap...Ive tried olive oil but I only left it on for about 30minutes?? was this too short.
    Lucy had it to and the only way I got rid of hers was to pick it off...she likes to sit and relax whilst I have a pick chimpanzee style
    Milly doesnt have a lot of hair so its really obvious and whilst it doesnt bother me last night DH says "Ewww gross whats this S*** in her hair"

    I think I tried a paste of olive oil and bicarb when DS had his, but it came back.

    I use the moogoo scalp cream. Its awesome and you hardly need any of it to keep it from not coming back

    I used sorbolene cream and just combed it through their (both DD's had it) hair. I put it on in the morning combed it through, then applied it again 2-3 times doing same thing combing through, then washed out at bed time

    The only thing that has worked for me with my childrens cradle cap is to make a paste of bi carb & water. Smear the paste over their head, leave for a bit to dry and then rinse it off. I do it just before a bath so they can soak in the bath too. Works every time
