My 4 month old has had eczema everywhere which I am controlling but the eczema on his cheeks I can't get on top of due to itching.
Tried steroid but even they only get it to certain level. I have him in scratch sleeves, tried pinning him doe in his baby bjorn over night which worked for a couple of times till he worked out how to get his arms out of it. Now he has started shaking his head from side to side so even if I disable his arms he is still rubbing the underside of his cheeks on his clothes.
Taken him out of sleeping bag. Last night I cut a baby grow and vest low to keep off skin but he still managed to catch the sides on shoulders and rub all of skin off again.
Making emergency appoint at drs again but wondering if anyone has been through this. Has anyone got out of the cycle. I am at my wits end.
