Desperate for itch relief
My baby is 9 months and has severe eczema, because she’s under 1 she cannot have piriton. I feel like she’s the only one struggling so bad as her eczema is severe and there is absolutely nothing that helps. Is there any other natural remedies for itch relief that can help as she is not sleeping at all at night, and is constantly waking up to itch! She has mittens on or else she will itch herself to bleed, but somehow still manages to itch so bad that she starts to weep. Just don’t know what to do anymore and desperate for any type of itch relief that isn’t medicine.

Hey you can get antihistamine prescribed for babies. I use it with my 5 month old. It's called chlorphenamine maleate it's really weak and to be honest doesn't last long on my baby but does give a little relief for a short time it can be given from 1 month old. Ask your Dr they may prescribe this to you
I’ve heard La Roche Posay Lipikar AP is really good for stopping them from scratching
You can get antihistamines from the doctor. My daughters eczema isn’t severe and they prescribe it
Eczema is a sign of allergy and intolerance. Something being fed is causing it I use Dove Eczema cream for myself and my toddler for flare ups In the process of narrowing down the new possible allergy
Yes, but even with the steroid she itches like mad so I’m not sure. She has lots of ointments and I lather her skin in it. Will give the oatmeal baths a go thank you!
