Does anyone know of a natural way to get rid of those white 'milk spots' in newborns?

Thanks

Yes - wait and they will go by themselves

They are part of being a newborn - why would you want to get rid of them?

Putting breast milk on them helps.

Still puzzled as to why you want to get rid of them (and a bit doubtful that breastmilk would hasten this, too, to be honest...if they go, it's prob coincidence!).

my little 4 week old is covered in them but to me she looks absolutely gorgeous!! they will go on their own, don't worry.

ds2 is 7 weeks and still covered in them

wouldn't say bm helps tbh, he gets a face full every time he feeds on one side as it spurts everywhere and it's certainly not clearing them up.... causing them maybe!
