Parenting after a Loss

Red cheeks

Lately DDs cheeks are getting really red at night and a little bit on her chin but only in the evenings. They are fine during the day. I usually put on aveeno baby lotion before bed but tonight I think it burned her cheeks cause she reacted like it did. So should I just use Vaseline or AD ointment or nothing? And any ideas why? I thought teething but I doubt it or sensitive skin or eczema but why just at night!? Thanks ladies!

Re: Red cheeks

  • Has she popped any teeth yet?  It can definitely be teething, chapping from the cold air and drool combining, or just chapping from the crib.  I put a tiny layer of vaseline on DDs when they get bad.

  • Thanks ladies! I don't see or feel teeth yet but she us constantly sucking on her hand, drooling, etc so it could be. I BFed for the first month but I do have lanolin ointment and never thought of using that!!! I didn't think it was the cold weather since I rarely take her out in it. I hope it clears up!

  • This is how DS's eczema started.. but it wasn't just at night.. it was periodically throughout the day.. really red and irritated for an hour or 2.. I'd vaseline them and they'd get better.. but then within another few hours they'd be red again..

    Hope it goes away for ya!  Sorry I'm basically no help :)

    DD is putting everything in her mouth, drooling like crazy, and her cheeks are red at night, too! I just figure it's teething. I've been putting a little Aquafor on after her bath, though I'm hoping she's not managing to get any in her mouth.
