Eczema in my 14 month old?


my 14 month old foster child has eczema ALL over her body. her eczema isn't extremely bad, but its still there.
cortate ointment goes on her 3 times daily
urea cream goes on twice
and atlas goes on at least 5 times

but like i said, her eczema is still there, and during the night she gets very itchy and sometimes has trouble sleeping...
i'm wondering what works for you (or your child)
any creams i should ask the clinic about?

she had benadryl for the itching, that didn't work...now shes on atarax, but that doesn't seem to work either

oh, check out my question where i listed all the things i do to calm down my sister's eczema.

she's had it since she was 2 weeks old, and i understand how frustrating it can be for your child and you. it really affects them.

also we discovered many of the foods whe was allegic to from lab testing(consult her doctor) and elimated those foods from her diet, which seemed to reduce her eczema a lot. she is even a little allegic to cow milk to we ordered neocate formula (a non dairy milk). chamomile lotion does wonders. right now we use Protopic ointment, but i think your daughter might be too young for it.

have u trid aveeno eczema cream? there is also some stuff to put in the bath

have you tried the Arbonne baby body bath?
My daughter has mild eczema and my son has mild as well.
I use this for their baths and it helps them. Does she take warm or hot baths? Give her cool baths.
I wash all my daughter's clothes in dye and fragrance free detergent and rinse them twice and use no fabric softners. Same with sheets.I actually use the whole Arbonne baby line.
It has helped a bunch. Still some issues, but it is much better.
You can find the Arbonne online.

it can be a frustrating experience for babies to have eczema. it can be traumatic and can affect their emotional and social development. it is best to consult a skin care expert. always keep the skin clean and avoid it from getting dry. and keep babies away from allergens. the best remedy is all natural that is effective in treating eczema. visit http://www.skinoriginal.com for more skin care eczema tips. good luck.
