oatmeal cereal skin rash? or aveeno

Frida314

Ok, so there's only two things I did differently. I bought aveeno baby lotion and used it after lo's shower last night. Two, I added a very tiny amount of oatmeal cereaL to two of his bottles yesterday morning.
Today he has a skin rash all over, except diaper area, armpits or neck nor face which hr didn't let me lotion up last night as he was crying after bath. So I quickly lotioned arms, legs tummy and back. All red little bumps covered. Could it be the lotion or the cereal. Haven't fed him cereal since yesterday morning and he did not have this rash during bath last nite. Did I just answer my own qyesyin Haha
No fever, no apparent itchiness not fussy
What do you girls thing? Isn't aveeno supposed to be very mild

Even if it is super mild, it can still cause a reaction. Was it baby aveeno? I doubt oatmeal in his cereal would cause a rash.

I vote aveeno

Yes baby aveeno I've always used Johnson and Johnson but I was like let's try a more natural one... I just gave him a bath and used no lotion to see if it goes away.

Johnson and Johnson has a naturals line, too.

You should try Live Clean baby wash and lotion. its like 98% natural ingredients I think you can find it at walmart

So is this what eczema is a skin rash or something else by definition?

lucyloo288

Eczema is super bad dry skin.. like so dry it cracks.

Frida314

Thanks..I'll definitely give it a try. Both Johnson natural and live clean.
No more aveeno for us

Oh I see, I always wondered what it was. Were still battling little dry patches on his head. But the rest was fine before aveeno.

My sons skin broke out while using aveeno and until I stopped, he was covered in bumps and I had no idea why. He also breaks out from oatmeal cereal which he was getting as well which I had to stop. I've come to conclude that he has an oatmeal allergy because aveeno does have oat in their formula. He's now using California baby lotion and body wash and finally has BABY skin
