Hello All



My 1 year old daughter brooke-lynn has eczema. It is on her cheecks and half her arms. it only seems to be on the places tthat aren't always covered by clothes. I have tried everything and every product and even medicated products. does anyone have any ideas to help out my poor beautiful babygirl.



Also does anyone have a baby thats lymph nodes are swollen from the eczema?



Thanks so much in advance

There is a wellness company that I belong to that has the best lotion for eczema. It's a green company so it uses tea tree oil. My nephew uses it and he loves it. Let me know if you are interested and I can help you join. andest103@yahoo.com

my 4 yr old has suffered with exzema since he was very small, it was alot worse too, i tried all of the medicated creams and lotions and found that nothing would work, infact they were making his skin worse!!!.
I used Nivea cream on his cradle cap.. which shifted it in less than 2 weeks, and found an amazing set of products called Dead sea Magik. you can find it in health food shops! it is quite expensive but it is very worth the price.
Dead sea Magik comes in creams, shower gel, bubble bath, soap etc. i would highly recommend trying it out, it really helped my little one and now he only suffers with skin irritation occasionally and when it comes i just use the cream on it, and we use the bath/shower gel and the soap regually.

i hope this helps :)

Hello. My daughter is one year old and has severe allergies and eczema. Her face is the worst because it's open to the elements. I keep her in a thin long sleeve body suit/onesie and leggings/tights/pj pants and then put a zip up, 100% cotton, footed pj's. I use cerave soap, lotion, and vasoline. I SWEAR by cerave. It's expensive but it works. I get it at walgreens. I keep my daughter lotioned up all the time. She just had swollen lymph nodes last week. By the time she went to the doctor, they weren't swollen. But, she became sick soon after. She had a double ear infection and broncholitis. Has your baby been sick since? Hope I could help. I'm here if ya need.

i put alot of what i do for my son on another question...so you can look at that and see if it helps. but my son also seemed to get it more where he wasn't always covered, so we covered him! he practically lived in footie pajamas until recently!
