There are enough things to worry about as a new mom. Baby\u2019s pesky skin conditions shouldn\u2019t be on the list! When I had my son a year and a half ago, I had a suspicion \u2014 solely based on my own skin sensitivities \u2014 that I would be putting my skin care expertise to good use dealing with his ailments. The poor guy had it all: \u201cbaby acne\u201d, eczema, severe diaper rashes, and cradle cap. We got through it, and I\u2019m here to share some of my tips for dealing with it all.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Baby Acne<\/h5>\n

What is it?<\/h4>\n

Baby acne is very common. They are\u00a0small red pimples and white heads that appear around 2-3 weeks of age. They can show up all over the body, but are often concentrated on the nose, cheeks and chin.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s debate over the cause. Some theories suggest that it\u2019s a result of pregnancy hormones transferred from the mother, others say it\u2019s a result of premature sebaceous glands and sensitive skin.<\/p>\n

What can you do about it?<\/h4>\n

Short answer is nothing. This skin condition is best left alone and will resolve itself within a few months. Never pick or scrub the area, this will only leave scars! If it doesn\u2019t resolve within 3-4 months, or you have concerns, always consult your child\u2019s doctor.<\/p>\n

Cradle Cap<\/h5>\n

What is it?<\/h4>\n

Cradle cap is an oily, yellowish crust that forms on the scalp of newborns, generally around 2-3 months of age as a result of excess sebum. It’s harmless and usually does not bother the infant.<\/p>\n

How can you treat it?<\/h4>\n

The best way to treat cradle cap is to soften the crusts and gently remove them with a soft bristled brush<\/a>. From 10 minutes to 1 hour before bath time, massage a generous amount of coconut oil or olive oil on the infant’s scalp. Once the oil has had time to soften the crusts, gently brush them away. Do not pick or force the crusts off prematurely, since this can cause bleeding and scabs. Follow up by washing the scalp with a gentle shampoo.<\/p>\n

\"Soft<\/a>

Soft bristled brush to remove cradle cap<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

How can you help prevent it?<\/h4>\n

There\u2019s no way to prevent cradle cap. Unfortunately, it\u2019s just one of those conditions your infant will need to outgrow. My son\u2019s cradle cap eventually went away around 8 months, but it was a lot less noticeable once his hair grew out!<\/p>\n

Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)<\/h5>\n

Starting around 2-3 months, my son developed eczema on his forehead and sides of his face. It became more of a problem once he started scratching his skin (!) and it didn\u2019t fully resolve until he was around 8-9 months old.<\/p>\n

What is it?<\/h4>\n

The most common form of eczema in babies is atopic dermatitis (rather than contact dermatitis, which is caused by exposure to an irritating substance). Eczema is a disfunction of the skin’s protective barrier and often appears as red, flaky patches. It can show up anywhere on the body, but is most commonly on the legs, arms, and face.<\/p>\n

The jury is still out. But it’s generally accepted that atopic dermatitis eczema is connected to the body\u2019s immune response to allergens and can be associated with asthma.<\/p>\n

How can you treat it?<\/h4>\n

There are a few stages of eczema. A red, \u2018angry\u2019 rash is often the first stage. It can be very itchy and hot. The best treatment for this stage (without a steroid cream) is to apply a zinc cream a few times a day to the affected area. Zinc will help \u2018dry\u2019 the rash and calm the inflammation.<\/p>\n

Once the rash dries up after a few days, the skin will become flaky. At this stage, avoid using zinc and steroid creams which will only further dry out the skin. Instead, consistently apply a skin balm<\/a> onto damp skin to seal in moisture and create a protective barrier. This will allow the skin to heal and regenerate (which can take a few months).<\/p>\n

How can you help prevent it?<\/h4>\n

If allergies are to blame for your infant\u2019s flare-ups, it can be tough finding the potential culprit.\u00a0 You’ll have to go through some trial and error since most allergy tests aren’t prescribed until after 1 year of age. In my son\u2019s case, I found a correlation with dairy. This isn’t the solution for every child though. Each case is different and it’s best to consult a physician or naturopathic doctor<\/a> to investigate possible causes. In many infant cases (like my son\u2019s), eczema resolves itself around 1-2 years of age.<\/p>\n

Diaper Rash<\/h5>\n

What is it?<\/h4>\n

A diaper rash develops when the skin stays wet for extended periods; this can happen with both cloth and disposable diapers. Cloth diapers allow the skin to breath but don\u2019t wick moisture away, whereas disposable diapers keep the skin dry but aren\u2019t very breathable.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s common to see diaper rashes arise with frequent loose bowel movements as a result of diet changes or illness. In my son\u2019s case, I\u2019ve noticed he\u2019s more prone to developing a rash when he tries new foods, or when he eats lots of fruit (especially citrus!). Baby wipes and perfumed products can also cause skin sensitivities and contribute to diaper rashes.<\/p>\n

How can you treat it?<\/h4>\n

When the rash is extremely red and irritated, rinse the area with warm water rather than wiping with a pre-moistened wipe. Pat the skin dry and apply a generous amount of zinc cream<\/a> onto the affected area. Do this with every diaper change until the redness fades, which should only take a few days.<\/p>\n

\"Oh<\/a>

Weleda Calendula Diaper Care to treat diaper rash<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

How can you help prevent it?<\/h4>\n

Keep the bottom as clean and dry as possible. Use unscented, natural wipes<\/a> and dry the area well before putting on a diaper.<\/p>\n

At least once a day, give your infant some diaper-free time. If you\u2019re worried about accidents, lay a dry towel down in an empty bath tub and let your baby play there with his\/her toys.<\/p>\n

Petroleum free “bum” balms<\/a> can help prevent rashes by acting as an extra layer of protection. Personally, I only use a balm when my son\u2019s stool is very loose, or his skin is starting to look chapped. Everyone is different though, so do what works for you and your baby. Generally speaking, it\u2019s best to change the diaper more frequently than relying on a balm to protect your baby\u2019s delicate skin.<\/p>\n

If the diaper rash lasts longer than a few days, it might be a yeast infection and you should consult a doctor.<\/p>\n

These are just a few of the most likely skin conditions you\u2019ll come across as a parent, and I\u2019ve offered some of those most common treatments that have worked for me and my son, but each case is unique. If you ever have questions or concerns, it\u2019s always a good idea to check in with your child\u2019s doctor. Or feel free to ask here and I (or one of your fellow parents) will try to help![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
