[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes, should I be worried if my 10 mo has it (perhaps got it around 4 mo) and we are just ignoring it, figuring it will go away? The kid has so much hair you can hardly see his scalp. I always thought it was more of cosmetic thing, but perhaps I'm wrong. [A while ago I did make a few attempts with oil and the special brush they gave us at the hospital, to no avail, so just gave up and moved on to other worries.][/quote] It can spread - my DD's did and she got it in between her eyes/eyebrows. I don't think its harmful but if you don't clear the scales then the oil just gets trapped and it makes it worse. I'd just grab some cradle cap shampoo (I use Mustela's foam shampoo for cradle cap). Its much less messy than oil and I found it to be far more effective. It was gone in 2 days.[/quote]
