Irritated skin (dry skin)?

Irritated skin (dry skin)?
(1)make sure bathing water is not too hot (hot water strips off natural oil/sebum off skin)


(2)when your baby is out of a bath put lotion on his skin immediately.


(3)choose a good lotion--dermatologists recommend no-fragrance ones, try Aveeno or Eucerin (they are NOT baby lotions)


(4)during the day if skin is still dry apply more lotion, be diligent


(5)if it's really red/irritated take your baby to the pediatrician, he might need a topical medication.





You didn't specify what the teething problem is. Try infant tylenol, orajel (might sting though some babies don't like it) for pain.

where is the dry skin and what does it have to do with the teeth see the doctor
Reply:My son had very dry skin that he would scratch along with some exzema. The BEST product in the world is Arbonne Baby Care. In two days his skin totally recovered and the redness went away. It's botanically based, all natural, the best to use on baby's sensitive skin. My pediatrician recommended and I have used it non-stop since (my oldest is 4, my youngest is 5 months). If you want a sample of it, e-mail me. It works wonders!
Reply:Don't use scented laundry detergent for his clothes. I found that All Free and Clear detergent works well, isn't irritating, and you can wash the whole family's clothes in it. I'm a huge Tide fan, but the pediatrician said that even the Tide Free and Clear still contains something that irritates most babies' skin, and to avoid it.





Also, stop using scented and colored baby washes and lotions. Use Dove bar soap (the kind in the white and light green box that's made for sensitive skin) and unscented Eucarin lotion.
Reply:I have found that Aveno sensitive skin baby wash works very well for both dry skin and cradle cap problems, it is very mild. For teething Tylenol is best, orajel does not work well and my doctor warned me that it can be dangerous if not used properly, it can numb the throat and the baby can then drown in his saliva if he can't swallow properly.
Reply:Just thought of sharing with you this.
