Cradle cap

[Lulu90]

Over the past couple of days Luca seems to have got cradle cap in his eyebrows.

I've been using oilatum all over for his dry skin and it's fab but not sure if I should be using something different on his face now? Any advice ladies? xx

Massage some olive oil or coconut oil in
Its fab
Obviously just use a wee bit so it cant run in his eyes x

I'll second the coconut oil - worked wonders for the hair and scalp is sensitive too so should work just the same...

I used dentinox (spelling....) shampoo and that worked well for us. xx

Olive oil every time at nighttime, its fab, it can start at etebrows and move up into hair or just start in hair/scalp.

Don't rub if it goes up to higher areas ( even with baby sponge or soft towel, leave to fall off itself). If into hair just do the same and wash off in bath in morning as baby hair gets greasy, roman lost all of his hair on top with his cradlecap and I was gutted , it was dark and grew back blonde!

Luca has sooo much yummy hair you don't want to loose it x

I second the oilve oil, my daughter had it in her eyebrows and that is what I used at night and it went pretty quickly, also used to massage it into her scalp when she had a flare up and it always made a big difference after a few nights. My daughter took until she was almost 18 months to grow out of cradle cap though, it would keep coming back every few weeks x

My lo has always had cradle cap on top. He lost some hair from it but I grew back just fine. I completely leave it alone, I never wash his hair only rinse it and if I use anything on his head the cradle cap flares up forna few days but if I leave it you barely know its there.
