I guess it’s really common in kids, especially during the cold months. Lalo na dito sa ACT kasi minsan nagnenegative ang temp. Anyway, our GP naman prescribed us QV lotion and bath oil and egocort cream. Very effective naman on Erin so far.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Just read about your entry regarding Erin’s rashes. Jappy developed rashes when he was 2 months old, but not something that made him uncomfortable…it made me uncomfortable! hehehehehehe! It subsided after about a week of soap changing and moisturization! Still, Jappy has atopic eczema too, which comes out when the weather/season changes. We still use the usual J&J bath soaps on him when he doesn’t have the rash, but when he gets it, we use Pine Tarsil bath oil. I actually had to bring the latter here to Manila coz he might react to the water or soaps here. It doens’t get so severe naman nor makes him uncomfortable, but it does leave marks on his face at times when he accidentally scratches his dry face or skin. (Sometimes he reacts to Dove soap too). Our GP also recommended to apply moisturizer every night after bath, so we use Cethapil lotion on him. He has Sigmacort .01% for his face, and Elocon ointment for his body rashes. I only put medication when he has rashes, otherwise, he has just the lotion. Cotton is the best material for ezcema. Sorry for the lost post..just wanted to share. Hope this helps. Take care and God bless.

P.S. Erin is looking more like you. =)
