Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Cradle cap at 9 weeks?

Is it normal for cradle cap to show up this late? She hasn't had any dry skin on her head at all, and suddenly it's appeared in the past week... Doesn't seem to bother her, I'm just curious because I thought it was a newborn thing!

Re: Cradle cap at 9 weeks?

  • DD1 had cradle cap at maybe 3 or 4 months old. I just remember noticing it when we were outside, she was a Feb baby, so to be warm enough here to be outside, she was at least 3 months old.

  • My DS had it when he was an infant and then again much later in his first year.  The Mustela shampoo is amazing for getting rid of it quickly.  In fact, he's almost 4 and we still use that shampoo on him.  It keeps his scalp from getting flaky.
