Cradle cap

[rainbowMIT]

Hi ladies.

My baby has a slightly orange scalp. A few little white flakes to and Slightly orange to the eye brows.
Is there anything I can do to help prevent cradle cap? I don't no much about it as this is my first.

I don't shampoo her head I just use the bath water. Would shampoo help?

We shampoo and brush with a soft brush (before rinsing shampoo off) every day, works a treat! And baby loves the feeling

I just enjoyed picking at it whilst he was b feeding. Eventually it went away. 😳

Use dentinox shampoo and brush in circles with soft brush ☺️ don't pick them they can bleed and get infected

Try putting baby oil or coconut oil on, then brush it off after you’ve had the oil on for a while. We did this in combination with using dentinox shampoo. DD is 9 months and we just have a single big flake left (trying my hardest not to pick at it!)

Thank you. Iv ordered some deninox shampoo 🤞🏻
Hopefully can get on top of it x

Our baby is 10 months old and still has cradle cap. As his hair has got longer you can't really see it anymore. I googled it and most of the advice says to leave it be as it doesn't cause the baby any harm.

That's right @Ridethewaves it's not an issue, I think all babies (perhaps there's a few exemptions) get it. That's why I just scraped a little off each time he breastfed. Very satisfying. 😂
