Cradle cap

My 2.5 week old has cradle cap.

Is there anything you can do besides just wash daily and scrub it a bit?

I'm calling my pedi on Monday.

Mustela Foam Shampoo

Coconut oil worked great for my DD

I also recommend the Mustela shampoo

Coconut oil and a baby comb did the trick for J, only had to "treat" him once

My doc said Selsun blue was ok to use. It's the same as dandruff. I tried baby oil and brushing with dd and it didn't work.

Breast milk helps, also after bath I would take a soft brush and rub in a circular motion while they nursed

@LadyAle‌ @Jennicillin‌ I've heard breast milk is like magic, but I wasn't allowed to breast feed this little one, so I can't try it

I used the mustela foam shampoo as well last time. One bottle lasted us the entire time he had cradle cap and it was just so easy!
