Cradle cap

ximenita003

I know it's not serious but I'm wondering if anyone's LO still has this on his/her head?

Nope. Mustela took care of that real quick.

We have a bit, it doesn't bother me terribly, he's got nothing more than peach fuzz so there is no flaking.  My 2y/o still has some patches too though with her (finally) ear length curly blond hair you don't notice it.  Ironically my 5y/o never had a spot.  I often think have some seborrheic dermatitis on my ears, many adults do though, it's more of a problem in people with darker skin as there can be some hypopigmentation.... me and my children are pasty people so who would notice a lighter freckle

Mustela works wonders! It is totally worth the extra money.

Yeah he has a little spot.  I have been using Gentle Naturals treatment.  It has helped but hasn't gone away completely.  I may have to try something else, but as long as it doesn't look horrible it doesn't really bother me.

Our ped recommended head and shoulders. I found a gentle version and it worked like a charm.

Ugh, A has it and it is terrible. Mustella didn't help, I almost feel like it has gotten worse. I've been going it would go away.

I second the Selson Blue! S had horrible cradle cap and we tried everything - including Mustella and coconut oil. It got so bad that I took him in to the Dr. because I thought it was infected. She prescribed a cortisone cream to help the inflammation and then said to use Selson Blue. It went away within a day and hasn't been back since!

There is a Selson Blue Naturals version I found that I felt a little better about using!

Letting coconut oil soak on it for 20 min and combing it out worked for both my kids.

Coconut oil worked great for us.

Just a little. It was never that bad and is slowly going away so we haven't been too concerned. We've only been using coconut oil. He has so little hair that we haven't been combing like we know we should.

We did two treatments of baby oil and combing it out and we appear to be cradle crap free for now!

My LO just started developing it last week. I mixed a little bit of Burt's Baby Bee Oil and breast milk together, applied it with a paint brush and stuck a hat on her for 15 minutes. Right before I bathed her, I combed through her hair with a really fine tooth comb. We did this treatment twice and it's cleared up perfectly now. Breast milk is like Franks Red Hot Sauce, I put that shit on everything!

Coconut oil and breast milk on everything here! And they both work wonders!
