Oh and I only used aveeno baby was because for some reason Johnson and Johnson baby wash made my daughter break out. If your baby gets it on the face or ears I highly recommend aquaphor baby lotion. It cleared it up in a few days
@bonita85 Thanks. I thought it was wired that the pediatrician recommend that though. My lo just has a very little spot on the top of her head. The doc said since it's so mild to use selsum blue once a week or once every other week n she does have a little in her eyebrows. Is aquaphor for secretive skin?
My daughter has sensitive skin... Only on her face and neck for some reason so I use the aquaphor. My pediatrician also said aveeno baby would work to because its low fragrance ( never used the aveeno lotion though). I put aquaphor on her face in the morning, after a bath and at night. Noticed a difference super fast. I don't recommend it for the whole body though. It's consistency is like vasoline.
My baby only had a spot on top of his head as well. His ped also reccommended I use a small drop of selsun blue or head and shoulders. I was hesitant to use either of those so I would gently rub baby oil on top of his head and I would use a little comb and it would come off little by little then I would give him a bath right after.
You can print a Target coupon for aquaphor as well as a manufacture coupon from their Facebook page and use them both at the same time for 1 aquaphor baby product.
@bonita85 thanks for all ur help...I'm gonna go to target first thing tomorrow n my lo has sensetive skin as well. Do u know if that lotion is good for eczema? She has a very little spot on her knee. @JuliansMommy I put a little olive oil in it and it looked better but doc said in some cases the oil only covers it up n can make it worse. How long did u have to use the baby oil until it was gone n how long did u let it sit on his scalp b4 washing it out?
@Juliansmommy you are lucky it worked. I tried the baby oil thing and that's when I found out I had to switch her baby was because it caused her to breakout like crazy.
I don't see any coupons for it but at Target during the holidays they had an aveeno gift set for $10 that they clearances out so look at the end caps and see if they have any. Last time I saw them they were 8 bucks with a percent off. You get 3 things in it ( wash, lotion and something else)
My pediatrician recommended head and shoulders also, but my LO has a patch of dry skin on his forehead, too close to his eyes! For his hair, I just use his regular baby soap and one of those baby brushes. I've used oil with a brush also. I should get some aquaphor for his little dry spot!
@ashleyz- Aquaphor healing ointment works wonders! My son was allergic to aveeno and he broke out on his forehead and I put aquaphor on it and it was all better by the next day. He also got a rash on his face that same day from the aveeno and that went away instantly. It's also great for dry skin.
