Cradle cap at 9wks old

[LindsayB24]

Hi. I've just been informed by friends that my 9 week old son does have cradle cap. can I have suggestions please on the best way to sort this out or products that people have found helpful. I did ask HV a number of times "does my son have cradle cap?" And he has said every time no. Mmmm!! 🤔

Our son has it too we used coconut oil it's food grade we got it from boots works a treat! We had to ask for it as couldn't find it mostly cause it was with the food!

Coconut oil also when dd was young. Worked really well & it's all natural which is a big bonus. A tub lasts ages & we still cook with it to this day.

Hi,

My little man also has cradle cap. I'm using sweet almond oil and works really well. You can see a big change in few hours.

Hope this helps!

Thank you. I will see what I can get in the next few days and how well they all work. I'll keep everyone posted. Grateful for your help. Xx

Either coconut oil or vegetable oil apply a small amount before baby has a sleep. Than using a soft brush, brush it out. Than wash baby hair with a small amount of baby gentle shampoo.
