My suggestion to all mum's wondering about cradle cap is- From the time that they are born wash there hair with your finger tips really firmly(watch the soft spot) Don't be gently because that is when they get cradle cap also wash the shampoo out really well. As the hair gets longer it is harder to get rid of. Try gently combing it out go to the doctors to see a specialist. I hope you can get rid of it. Remember Wash the hair firmly with your finger tips really get in there- That on its own might help.

a three three hundred and sixty 5 days old likely don't have the prevalent toddler "cradle cap". it really is likely seborrhea, a kind of extreme dandruff that perchance should be considered by technique of a dermis professional. it may also be an infection corresponding to athletes foot. it may also be psoriasis. you are able to attempt this usual earlier you flow on your healthcare professional: attempt blending Selsun Blue 1/2 and 1/2 with toddler shampoo and wash your youngster's hair each evening for a week with it and word what takes position. Be very very careful now to not get it interior the eyes. A nutritional frame of mind may be to verify your chld receives a teaspoon of safflower oil, canola oil, or olive oil daily. Getting the mandatory fatty acids in his weight-help plan may help.

Stelson Blue just make sure not to get in the baby's eyes. The cradle cap is coming from not getting all of the soap out of his/her hair. You can get this shampoo in the shampoo isle. Or you can go to the baby isle and there are some stuff made for cradle cap. I haven't tried those. My doctor said the Stelson Blue.

I don't know if it's still cradle cap... you should see a dermatologist.

Sign of low zinc.
Buy some pumpkin seeds and let her munch on them.
Will clear up very fast.

Have you tried talking to her pediatrician about this? She could have eczema.
