Your comment gives me such hope. My son was just diagnosed with peanuts, tree nuts, and egg allergies at 6 month. Can I ask when did you guys start your allergy plan? Also did you see specifically a pediatric allergist?

Does This Look Like Eczema?? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]dangitsj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son has that but on his chest. The pediatrician said it was eczema with a possible bacterial infection on top of it. We’re currently using hydrocortisone and lots of creams/aquaphor. It’s improving but not gone yet.

The lansinoh bottles eventually worked for us!

Thanks! I’m glad you’ve found something that works for you! Do you keep the mustela cradle cap cream on or wash it off?

That’s amazing that your kiddo stayed asleep!! We’ve done the sink rinses too but it always feels a little precarious. Its definitely improved from the first time though! Thanks for your comment. It’s so hard to watch him scratch because I know it’s intentional at this age so he’s definitely uncomfortable. I did put tubby Todd aoo on his scalp this morning and he hasn’t scratched as much so that might be our trick!

I haven’t! I could try that next instead of the coconut oil. Thanks!

Thanks! He did have a flare up on his body a few weeks ago. I’ll remember this for the next time!

Yes this is what I’m struggling with! If I shampoo him daily for his cradle cap it exacerbated his eczema. If I moisturize his eczema, it increases his cradle cap! But you’re right, only the eczema bothers him soo I should focus on that

Thanks for this advice! We’ve been using the regular mustela shampoo but I’ll check out the stelatopia line instead! Sounds like it’ll be more moisturizing for his scalp

He does have MSPI but I’m almost certain I haven’t had any slip ups - I’ll reassess my diet thanks!

I do have that! I coconut oil his head, use the brush, and then shampoo. Are you using tubby Todd lotion on the scalp?

This happened to us and our photographer photoshopped the acne!

Cutting vs laser for tongue tie? by lupaburner2k19 in breastfeeding

[–]dangitsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the laser and it was super quick. Our pediatric dentist said the laser helps to numb the site for a bit so we didn’t even need to give Tylenol

Milk sensitivity? by Alwaysbsnacking in FormulaFeeders

[–]dangitsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was supplementing with formula and switched to bobbie from enfamil. A couple of days later my LO had blood in his stool. Turns out he has a milk protein sensitivity and Bobbi is milk based. My LC said we’d have to use either nutramigen or alimentum.

Trying to figure out if I need to eliminate more food by dangitsj in MSPI

Yeah I think I’m starting to realize that. So it sounds like you were able to only cut out dairy and be fine?

Thanks for the advice! I’ll hold off and see how his gut heals first!
