I need some advise..my 6 weeks old baby body skin is too dry. we used to bath him J&J body wash, he got heat rashes all over his body. so we stopped all the J&J products and started using basan and turmeric powder. recent few days his skin is too dry and turned into black. face looks good. can anyone give me some advise? can i apply coconut oil? thx in adv
you can use aveeno baby moisturizing lotion or cetaphil...these were suggested by pediatrician for my son...
Thanks for your suggestion. What do you use to bath your baby. My mom made a powder with besan,turmeric,vasambu. Is it good to use?
Try to use mustela products..I hear so many reviews like this on J&J so I never use... I am using mustela productes for my baby.....from last 1yr no side effect and they contacting hight % of moisturizer then any other brand....
I'm using Johnson's head to toe body wash.... Using natural things is always good...it won't hav any side effects...i've tied vasambu in my LO's hand...the smell of vasambu prevents vomiting...
@ovivijay besan makes skin dry. I was also using homemade powder initially. My DD used to get rashes. Later I switched to J&J head to toe wash. Immediately after bath, I applied J&J moisturizing lotion. During fall/winter months I applied moisturizer atleast 3 times a day. Slowly rashes disappeared and did not come back. I still gave oil bath once a week using homemade powder. i also tried California baby products. Found them to be good too. J&J itself helped anyways.
My son got rashes on his body at 6 weeks because we used Mothercare oil/lotion. This is slightly perfumed. My Pediatrician recommended Cetaphil soap liquid and Cetaphil lotion. With that his rashes were gone in 2days. For such young babies, sty away from fragranced products nd any besan/turmeric.
