Question mamas...my baby has eczema on his forehead and cheeks and I already brought him to the pediatrician and they said they don’t want to prescribe anything for it because it’s on his face and they don’t want to put any prescription cream on his face so they said to use a cream not lotion cause cream would moisturize more so I have been using Aveeno Baby moisturizing cream on him daily and it hasn’t helped! What else can I try? It’s itchy cause he’s rubbing it with his hand on his forehead and he’s cranky.

Oh, and keep his skin moisturized. Dry skin makes the itching worse. And when you bathe him, use lukewarm water.
5 months is not too young my daughter has severe eczema she has had it since she was born and I use hydrocortisone cream mixed with Vaseline. It hurts them so bad. I been giving her it since 1 month old
The reason the pedi won't prescribe is the prescription creams and such are very strong. My husband has psoriasis on his face and scalp. He has a shot he gets every 3 months that literally isn't covered my insurance (it's over 2k). We are in a program with the drug manufacturer so it costs us $5.00 each time. He has creams, oils etc to help. Does it work? Yes. But, it's strong treatment that definitely isn't for kids.
My advice is look into all natural ideas online or creams that are out there. I watched an episode of The Profit last night (on demand. We're behind) on Monica Potter and her signature product was a cream for eczema and psoriasis that was all natural.
Baby Aveeno didn’t work for my baby either. Try Eucerin Baby Eczema Cream
Cetaphil!!!! Use the cream, it will clear up in a couple of days! I live by this product and have used it for years on my family. I have eczema really bad but no one would ever know.... CETAPHIL!!!!!!! The cream!!!!!!
@momboo, yeah I am just worried if he touches the aquaphor on his cheeks then puts his hands in his mouth that it is bad for him or something ugh
@hthomas0308 and to be honest I'm that one whos hates Aveeno because it's made our eczema worth..I was pissed back on time
@hthomas0308 no worries, it's was on cheeks of my little one sometimes I couldn't prevent her not touch it by hands and another time she's had rash around her lips and Dr told it's okey if she's will accidentally lick it ..well here we go we 1 and thanks God nothing bad happened
@mommieof2babies, ok I’ve seen that one before it has something different in it?
@hthomas0308 I used to use Johnson and Johnson's, which gave my son a rash all over his body. I switched to aquaphor and never looked back.
@chasha2017, should I switch his body wash I use...I use Johnson and Johnson’s
Oh, and keep his skin moisturized. Dry skin makes the itching worse. And when you bathe him, use lukewarm water.
Aquaphor is amazing. Also, try putting a little hydrocortisone while he's asleep.
Are you using regular baby aveeno or the aveeno eczema one.. They all work wonders but try aquaphor first and see if that helps
@mommieof2babies, which would you recommend most!?
@momboo, thanks yeah I’m starting to not have faith in aveeno ugh I have used aquaphor on my older son before on his cheeks so I will try that I’m just concerned cause he always has his hands in his mouth and I’m afraid he will get the aquaphor in his mouth that way from his cheeks
Aveeno is not miracle,but what's always helped with our eczema is Auquaphor eczema
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
Push presents are stupid, and women who expect “push presents” from their SO’s are even more stupid. You’re giving life to a human being for Pete’s sake! You don’t need a damn present for something your body is made to do. 🤦🏻♀️
There, I said it. 🤷🏻♀️
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.
My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...
I don’t get why people feel the need to change their usernames or make a whole new account on here just because they can’t handle the backlash buuuut you had no issue starting the problem 🤔.
