Cradle cap?

4 replies

My baby had some cradle cap and some spots of what look like dry skin, I've used coconut oil and a baby brush as well as dentinox which seems to have cleared up the cradle cap but the spots remain, the HV says it's just dried skin but I can't seem to get them to clear up, any advice?

My LO was like this. I covered her head with Vaseline overnight and it was gone in the morning

Baby dove shampoo work

It's just little flakes of dry skin and oil. You can just leave it - it's harmless, isn't hurting your baby, and will come off on its own.

I used to love picking at cradle cap. What cleared it for Dts was when we went on holiday for two weeks and I smothered their heads in sun cream every day.
