Canuckgal April 7th, 2004, 02:48 AM Can't do very much about it, but it will go away in time. I asked my doc about lotions, soaps, etc. etc. and she said nothing but water to clean your DC's face. Anya had it for about 1.5 months, and then one day..nothing. If it's really, really bad, they may give you a steroid cream but tend to stay away from putting anything on a NB's face. Dee Mandi April 7th, 2004, 11:31 AM I think most people don't really use anything. But I have heard of quite a few people who've used a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil on it. I'd probably call the girls Ped to see what he says. Hilary April 7th, 2004, 12:27 PM Thanks! Madelynn has her 2 year checkup and Ava her 2 month check up, on the 13th, so I'll just ask then! :) SarahK April 7th, 2004, 08:23 PM Katie's cleared up without any help. :dunno: Karri April 12th, 2004, 04:03 PM Everyone says not to use anything...it will clear up on its own (its just hormones in her that cause it). Regardless, I use Cetaphil to wash the kids' faces b/c it is much more gentle than baby wash. Then we moisturize it with Teeny Faces (Gerber). |
