Growth spurt and eczema

NimaStev

My DS has ezcema according to the doc. Doc prescribed cortizone cream for 3 days which cleared his rash but it's back again... He is so uncomfortable and itchy which has of course messed up his sleep pattern. He was up for 7 hours fighting to sleep yesterday and 6 hours today. Holy 6 week growth spurt my DS is grunting crying and all sort of stuff in his sleep and been very fussy overall. How is everyone else LO doing?

DS1, almost 5yo, gets eczema patches when he has too much dairy. Have you considered a sensitivity? We just use aquaphor or coconut oil on the patches if they ever pop up because it's really under control at this point. GL with your LO!

DS2 has bad eczema.  I've made my own cream for it and it cleared it up really well.  My BFF has used it on her son too and cleared his rash up.  This is the recipe I used.
