Amanda from what you have said it sounds like the usual rash/pimples babies get around 5-7 weeks of age. It generaly goes within a few weeks, but if your worried, get it checked out. It could be more then just that. Jasmine had terrible skin as a baby and still does on her arms and legs....but her face was terrible and always itchy. She has eczema and we use steriod cream on her at night.
Also try Natio cream...thats awesome for dry skin. With bath time, if JD's skin is more then just the age related pimple/dry skin, the best thing to use in the water is nothing.....soaps and additives will make his skin flare up more. Try some rolled oats even...that is pretty good. Else try Moo Goo cream (google it). For us i used to use Dermveen cream in the water, or theres Derm aid powder stuff you buy from the chemist. Its what the cildrens hospital on Melbourne use and recommend. It has no smell at all (ie wont make bub smell all pretty)....but when you first use it, will smell likes oats! HTH a bit
As for your DH...im sure he would tell you if he wasnt being satisifed...well if thats his nature. I know Craig definately lets me know..LOL
