[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s what worked for us (for two different kids, both with eczema, only one child with known food allergies): Vanicream, head-to-toe after every daily bath with Cerave or Cetaphil baby wash, followed by a thin coat of Aquaphor to seal it in Scent-free everything: lotions, detergent, dryer sheets, etc. The one child with food allergies was also helped by elimination diet (both his and mine while breastfeeding); his food allergies included an ingredient in a lot of Excema-specific baby products, so we found the products above to be the only ones that worked for both children. [/quote] Also wanted to add that child with food allergies had GI allergy issues, and the elimination diet was necessary for us both so he could gain weight and stop having constant vomiting, diarrhea, and malabsorption issues. The elimination of his allergies also helped with his eczema, but was incidental and not why we went on elimination diets. [/quote]
