Sorry about your baby.. Suggestion:
Breastmilk
If you can't do that just cool water and run it over the sunburn! That will help.

Treating sunburn
If your baby does have sunburn, you may want to call your doctor just in case. A cool (not cold) bath or a cool cloth placed on the skin may help. Make sure the baby drinks lots of fluids. If you see blisters or your infant appears listless, the condition may be more serious and require immediate medical attention.

A sunburn at that age is very dangerous. You should call the Pediatrician. If it is really minor, cooled tea bags can be soothing.

How bad is the burn? If the baby is abnormally fussy or seems to have discomfort, take him/her to the emergency room. Their skin is so frail and sensitive!
Good luck!

Breastmilk on it, and call your doctor. A baby with suburn is at extremely high risk for heat stroke.

i would call your doc first cause its such a newborn.
i dont suggest taking it out in the sun for long periods of time!
keep baby hydrated, and next time he/she is in the sun put lots of sunscreen with the highest SPF possible....

keeping the skin moist is most important. lotion w/ vitamin E, or any lotion you use for yourself will work as well. allow air to get to the burn. maybe just a t-shirt and diaper. This always worked for my 2 boys.

Call your doctor...aloe may not even be recommended for a child that young.
Why would you put a child that young in the sun in the first place???

go to your nearest 24 hour pharmacy or emergency room. that baby is too young for sunburn. go now! it could get an infection and die.
