Parenting after a Loss

How often do you lotion LO?

DD's skin has been super dry now that it is colder here. We still only do bath 2x a week and I use Aquafor after bath. Wondering if I should be using it every day or a different type of lotion for those non-bath days.

  • We use lotion every night. Vanicream on her face bc of eczema. The only time we don't on her body is if we have swim lessons the next day bc it makes her too slippery for me to hold her.

  • Cetaphil nightly on legs feet arms and face. G gets a "wipe down" sponge bath every other night and a full on bath once a week as he freaks out in the tub so we don't push it.

    I don't lotion them at all, as they haven't seemed to need it since I got off of Johnson's and went to Aveeno Baby..... If I see they're getting too dry with the water baths, I'll be using some lotion on them as needed.
