From what my pediatrician told me, it’s completely normal and goes away on its own most of the time. Just keep up with the lotion of choice:) if it gets worse or seems to be bothering baby then they may consider medical ointment but I wouldn’t worry mama

My boy has the same. Was told by my HV that it is totally normal, avoid putting any lotions on him and don't bath too often 😁

It's super normal warm baths and lotion was what I did with my kiddos

My MW recommended coconut oil and it worked really well on my LO. It instantly came off

Totally normal as babies skin adjusts to the outside world. If you really think it needs moisture the lansinhol nipple cream really helps. X
