Hi, 👋🏻
I use Aveno on my baby after each bath. I’ve noticed he has began to get dry patches on his back. Any recommendations for a good moisturiser? I use Nivea, is this safe to use? X

I’ve always used coconut oil and aveeno on my daughter and she’s 2 now with generally good skin

Using it one time probably wont hurt or irritate baby.
But I highly recommend using butters and balms on baby. They tend to penetrate and moisturize babies skins better (: ones with beeswax will seal in the moisture and protect skin from chafing against clothes. They are more expensive tho.

I used child farm that worked but didn’t get rid of it so I seen the doctor and the gave us 1% steroid cream but u can get it from Tesco and that aswell its in the bug bite isle

Thanks :) I’ve used the Nivea 3x and it’s cleared it but I didn’t want to use it too much! I’ve psoriasis and that’s the only cream that’s works for me- so it’s the only thing I have in the house bar the aveno! Will try get to the shops tomorrow! Snow is crazy here! X

Epoderm cream. I use it on my 3 year old as his skin gets dry and itchy. It was prescribed by his gp but it can be bought over the counter or amazon.

Use Navicream bar soap and cream
Clear it all up in a day
Sometime baby react to heavy fragrance in products
