Neosporin on 8 month old?

My indoor cat scratched the hand of my baby. She didn't even really cry, no blood was drawn. Can I or should I put anything on it just in case?

  • I have put Neosporin on the back of LO's leg, but Im not sure if I would put it on his hand, being his hands and fingers are always in his mouth.

  • Do you BF? Put a little BM on it. If you wash it well, you really don't need neosporin. A thin layer of Vaseline will keep dirt out and won't hurt if LO swallows it but I'd probably just leave it alone.

  • Ds scratched himself on the face a while ago and the pedi says to use Polysporin (sold in the same aisle as neosporin.)  I guess Neo has something in it that shouldn't be used on infants, according to my pedi.
