How to Treat That Crusty Cradle Cap
Have you ever wondered how to treat that crusty cradle cap? When you were a new mother and suddenly noticed a scabby, crusty patch in your baby’s soft hair, how did you react? Did you experience a moment of panic at seeing a yellow scaly substance on your baby’s head, or even on the ears, eyebrows or eyelids?
No need to worry. Cradle cap isn’t harmful to the baby, and is actually thought to be caused by the oil glands reacting to the remaining mother’s hormones in the body. Usually a simple treatment will get rid of the problem very easily.
In an effort to reassure new mothers that cradle cap is not something to get upset about, we asked a few experienced mothers to share their solutions for cradle cap.
1. I used baby oil and a soft brush to try and break up the thicker areas. I found this helps the appearance in a way that it doesn’t look as bad, however it wasn't a cure.
2. My son had cradle cap real bad but within a week of doing what the doctor said, it was gone. Take a soft baby brush and as you wash their hair, start gently brushing from the front toward the back in small circles. Afterwards wash the hair out and next bath time repeat until it’s gone. If there is a spot that that is more resistant, you might want to spend more time on that area. Make sure not to push to hard on their head and before you know it, it'll be gone.
3. Each of my three children had a bout of cradle cap. This is probably due to my being extra gentle with them when washing them as newborns. I found the best way to get rid of cradle cap was get baby oil and rub it into the scalp. I would then take a big tooth comb and gently comb their hair. The dry skin would loosen and be caught in the comb. After combing out a majority of the dead skin, I would then wash the baby's hair. This would take care of the cradle cap problem and usually it didn’t return.
4. My daughter had bad cradle cap and very little hair. When she was in the bath and her hair was wet I would gently rub her head with baby oil (not too much or the hair will look very greasy) and gentle comb her hair to get rid of the dry skin. It worked and eventually her hair grew and the cradle cap stopped.
5. My baby did experience a bout of cradle cap, and we firstly contacted our pediatrician, and also asked friends and family for great tips on how to clear it. We ended up using a mild baby shampoo, and only washed our baby's hair every other day to prevent it from further drying out. We also used baby oil, and applied it to the area to keep it moisturized. Eventually, the cradle cap went away, and all was well!
6. Use a little bit of baby oil and massage into baby's head. Than take a comb and comb "against the grain", than wash hair.
7. When my first son had cradle cap, his doctor said to just make sure to clean his head well during his bath. It worked, but it took a while to go away. Then when my youngest was in daycare, and they said to use baby oil and wipe it off. That was much faster.
8. I Used Head and Shoulders dandruff shampoo. My pedestrian recommended it. It worked great.
Now you know how to treat that crusty cradle cap and realize it’s not something to panic about, and that there are a few different remedies that have been proven to work beautifully. So get out the baby oil, the soft brush or comb and get ready to spend a little quality time with your baby.

Baby Furniture: a Wonderful Baby Gift for Mothers to be
A baby on the way means there are lots of preparations to make. One big cost a mother who is expecting a baby can plan on covering is the purchase of baby furniture. There are certain items most families will need for their babies. If the family has a vehicle, then a car seat will be purchased. There are many different types of car seats available. Some are just for newborns, while others, referred to as "convertible" car seats, can grow with your child. In most cases, a convertible car seat can only safely transport and protect babies who weigh under forty pounds, so once your child reaches that weight, you'll need to upgrade to a larger capacity car seat.
A sling or a stroller is a great way to transport your baby while on the go. Most baby furniture stores will carry a large selection of strollers. There are basic umbrella strollers, midline strollers, and expensive lavish strollers. Each type of stroller has its own set of benefits to offer you. A sling is a close and intimate way to carry around a baby during the first few months of life, and is the perfect solution for breastfeeding mothers who wish for a convenient, mostly hands-free and semi-private way to nurse their babies in public, and even in their own home. However, babies can be quite heavy to carry once they reach twenty pounds or so, so at that point you should have a stroller to fall back on.
While a lot of new moms will co-sleep with their newborns, later on the baby will need his or her own sleeping arrangements. Most of the time, this is accomplished with a crib. Many cribs can later be converted into toddler beds and even into day beds or full size beds, so a crib, while a very expensive purchase, is certainly well worth the purchase. Most baby furniture is expensive, but it is also an excellent investment and makes nice baby gifts.
What other types of baby furniture can you expect to purchase? Well, most babies will need a place to be fed, so you can expect to purchase a high chair, or an indoor infant seat. When your baby grows into a toddler, then you can eventually pack away the often large and cumbersome high chair, and in its place introduce a toddler seat or booster seat. Babies need activity and movement. Consider a cradle, a baby swing, and activity centers like the popular Exo-saucer. Most baby furniture stores will carry these.
For your baby's bedroom, consider organizational baby furniture like a chest of drawers, a dresser, and a changing table. A changing table is an invaluable tool for baby organization. It can hold diapers, bathing supplies, even extra changes of baby clothes.
