Calendula Lotion

[Sherlock]

I'm going to sing its praises here Don't know if anyone else is using this lotion but my MW recommended it and so far its been brilliant and is the only thing I use on Galen other than water.

Natural product from healthfood stores and cost me £6.25 for a 200 ml bottle but it goes a long long way.

Good for bottoms, skin after a bath, cradle cap, bites and goodness knows what else. Smells good also.

I've been using it on Galen when he gets a bit of a sore bum and it works wonders. And his skin when it gets flakey does really well with this rubbed in.

Weleda Calendula lotion

Anyone else use this and if so how did you/do you find it? Always good to know others experiences with something.

I was going to post about this cream as I had an allergic reaction to it! I was told it was good for stitches but it made it worse. I hadn't thought of using it on bubs but I might do as she has very dry skin...

If I still don't get on with it one of you guys can have it!

Sounds good but the price makes me you say it goes a long way it would have to for that price.
Id love to try it as like you i dont use any lotions or postions apart from water to clean Collier and bath him and sudocream on his bottom on the few occations it has been red
i like the sound of this friendlier alternitive to sudocream though not friendly on the pocket

I use it on my stretchmarks. Seems to be working too!

I use the calendula nappy cream and love it

Me too, I use the Weleda calendula nappy cream occassionally and its fab.

I bought Nelsons Calendula cream for DD's bad saliva rash (constantly sucking her fingers as a comforter) and its great too.

G&B - I wouldn't worry too much about the price - I'm on a budget too, but you hardly need any of this product and not often - I think one or two bottles or tubes (depending whether using nappy cream or lotion) could last for years.
