Baby Eczema Advice
Parents of baby with eczema?
Ryan has it pretty bad, it just really started getting bad around 3 months.
We are currently using vaseline lotion and dove unscented soap. I have heard to try aquafur? what kinds of lotions, creams, etc do you use on your little ones face??
Also Ryans face is at its worst in the morning with his cheeks shedding and peeling skin... Am I the only one whose babys face is so bad??
Any advice on exzema please!!!
My son is 15 months old and has severe Eczema. His started around 3 months old...and it started on his cheeks also. Sounded exactly like what you stating. I went to my family doctor and begged for anything that would help him. He gave me Aquafur also, and some other OTC creams. They did nothing. If anything..it just got worse in a month. When Austin was 4 months old I took him over to a friends house so she could meet him. Shockingly, her son also had Eczema just as bad as my son. He was 4 at the time and still had it bad. She pulled out the creams taht her doctor gave her when he son was a newborn. She put a little on my sons cheek and within an hour it was clear! I couldnt beleive it! My son had been suffering for months because my doctor didnt understand how Severe his syptoms were. I called the doctor and demanding those exact creams and he prescribed them on the spot. Since then, i have had very little problems with the exzema. My doctor also told us our son would grow out of it by a year old...And by 12 months are son was worse, not better at all. So if you hear that, dont get your hopes up 
Here are the names of the creams..one is for face and other is for body. Also I see someone suggested hydrocortizone...I wanted to let you know I tried that with my son also..it worked a bit but the other creams worked much better for me.
Body- fluocinonide
Face-Desonide
I really hope this helps you as it helped us. Please if you have any questions email me at Paac26@yahoo.com

Eczema Treatment for Babies -What is the Best Option?
The Eczema of the form atopic dermatitis which is commonly known as the infantile dermatitis is very common among the children especially who lives in the western countries. Those children who have dry skins are more prone to this kind of disease. Unfortunately the Eczema does not show off the symptoms until it is too late. So it is really very difficult to predict whether the baby is suffering from the Eczema or not. And when you come to know then it is quiet late.
I would like to give you some tips which will help you in curing the disease quickly and also permanently:
1.One of the major problems with the babies is that they keep on scratching the wounded part of the body always. They really do not give any attention to the sound advice which you give them. However you have to keep in mind that they are too small to understand what you are saying. One of the major ideas of curing the eczema is to use the moisturizer. You can apply the moisturizer on the affected part of the baby just after bath. In this way you will definitely be able to cure the disease quickly.
2.If you are buying the synthetic clothes then I really feel that you should stop buying them as quickly as possible. You should know that the synthetic clothes are really very bad for your skin. It is better to buy the cotton clothes as the help the skin to breathe better. If you will use the cotton clothes for your child then you will find that the skin seldom gets irritated.
3.The temperature of the water which you are using for the baby bath should not be hot. You can only use the lukewarm water. This is because the hot water irritates the skin a lot. Hence you should really avoid it. If your baby is still irritated then you can add salt to the water. You can add half cup of salt to one bucket full of water. In this way you will find that your baby will not be irritated. And yes, you should not forget to apply the moisturizer to the skin just after the bath.
4.There are some of the moisturizers which you should avoid. You should avoid the moisturizers which have sweet fragrance. You should also not use the chemical moisturizers. These are really bad for the skin.
5.You can also cover the entire body of the baby with the cotton clothes soaked with lukewarm water. This will keep the skin of your child damp all the time and prevent them from drying.
These are some of the methods with which you can cure the baby eczema at home. But if you find any negative effect then you should immediately contact the doctor.
