Would you say this is cradle cap or something else? It came around 3 weeks ago when she was 3 months old. Never had cradle cap before this. It doesn’t seem to be getting any worse or bothering her. The first red mark is a birth mark it’s just the two scabby/red patches.

Iv never seen cradle crap like that before, if you havnt been picking at it and nothings irritating it then its something else. Get it checked by a gp

I’m absolutely not a doctor but looks like it could be psoriasis or eczema? Fairly common in newborn I think but see a GP x

Looks more like eczema to me.

No not cradle cap looks like ring worm or excema, try putting some baby oil in it or Vaseline but I would book a gp app they will able give you something for it
Thank you! I have contacted the GP but as usual need to wait 3 weeks for an appointment. Will try Vaseline. She has also been getting red dry patches on her stomach so maybe it is eczema!

Have you tried taking her to an pharmacist they maybe able to help and advise in the mean time x

I’d say more eczema but I’m not a doctor so could be wrong, just comparing it to my son’s cos his was relatively bad. I’d get it checked by pharmacy but they prob will say go to the doctors because she’s a baby xx

I do children’s nursing and I’d say looks more like eczema or psoriasis, more likely eczema x but still go to that appointment and get it checked
