When my son was about a month old, he developed infant eczema. People suggested cutting dairy out of my diet because I breastfeed him & it could be a dairy sensitivity. I am lactose intolerant I don’t have a lot of dairy in my diet anyway, just cheese and yogurt once in an odd while. I didn’t want to jump to further limiting my already restricted diet. I asked my doctor and he said it was too early to assume it was a food sensitivity. My mother suggested I switch his baby soap from liquid soap (marketed for sensitive skin) to just water and a little plain Dove bar soap. So I did that and then put fragrance free Glaxol moisturizer on his skin (the same moisturizer she uses on her skin where she had radiation done). Over that I put Lanolin (the stuff for sore cracked nipples). I did this for a couple weeks but even with a couple days there was a noticeable difference and in about a week it was completely clear again. His cheeks were I longer red, flakey, cracked and sore. They were baby soft & perfect again. I now recommend trying this to everyone who’s baby gets a similar rash. I no longer use baby shampoos or anything like that. Done bar soap is by far the best for his skin!!    -
