Baby has severe eczema- could it be the formula?

[Scorpiowoman80]

It covers her cheeks and is slowly spreading, not much on her body though. We’ve tried various different creams but it seems to budge for maybe a couple of days and then flares up bad again. Would I be able to buy formula OTC or would a GP have to prescribe it? TIA x

What creams are you trying?

Hi. I’ve just posted about my baby’s severe eczema on another thread.

I cut out dairy and soy very early on (breastfed) but it didn’t make a difference, so it’s unlikely the stopping the formula will change things. You could ask your GP for other options?

It spread quickly from his feet to 90% of his body. So hard and heartbreaking.

I hope yours clears up x
