Hello - I have a DS now 8.5 months. He has very thick, long brown hair (unlike DH ) so I only noticed these dry, yellowish scales on the front of his scalp (it's only a patch not all over) a few weeks ago when washing his hair. He didn't have this when he was born, so I was wondering could this be cradle cap ? I thought only newborns had it ?
Also he usually has very soft, gorgeous baby skin, but recently has developed a dry face (wind, cold weather, etc ?). He also has dry legs.
Can anyone recommend a natural treatment for cradle cap (if that's what it is) - I bought a shampoo from the chemist, but as it's medicated don't want to use it too often.
What can I use for his face that is gentle and non-medicated ?
Many thanks for any advice.
