[quote=Anonymous]Ugh, we are having the same issue. This always happens to my daughter in the winter time. My approach is generally to treat any dry or itchy skin with Aquafor, and then to go pants-less in the evening and overnight. We just put an extra blanket on her bed so that she has warmth if she needs it. But the combo of the Aquafor and exposure helps to at least keep it in check. It also helps to dress her in natural fibers when possible, and to make sure they are wearing looser pants and not skin tight things. Even with all this, though, we still deal with these rashes all winter. Our pediatrician has said it's just how it is with some kids -- sensitive skin. Ours also had eczema as a baby although we are very fortunate that it seems to have cleared up on its own with a little more vigilance around post-bath moisturizing. But we assume we'll be dealing with skin issues for a long time as our child is just prone to them (and I was, too, as a child).[/quote]
