Bub is developing dry skin patches - what can I do?

Hello!

Hi. Lately I’ve noticed bub is getting dry peeling patches of skin. Mostly in the folds, such as toes, fingers, fat rolls of legs and wrists. Should I treat it?

You could try a massage oil, moisturising cream or even a barrier cream like a nappy cream

Try giving your baby a massage after a bath using massage oil specifically for babies or using sorbolene.

Go to the chemist and get a good moisturizing cream like QV or Dermaveen or MooGoo

Perhaps see your doctor about this especially if you can tell its worrying him/her. Also try a natural baby moisturiser or perhaps even a zinc cream like bepanthen.
