I keep forgeting to post this! Baby had some horrible eczema for a couple months. At one point she even broke out in blisters! We tried very hard to figure out the cause, but never did. I tried changing her diet and using many kinds of creams and natural remedies and finally resorted to Aquaphor which I used once. I really didn't feel comfortable using a chemical laden petroleum product on her, but the concept made sense. We needed something to create a barrier to keep moisture in. Then it occured to me that Lansinoh is very similar to Aquaphor! I applied it with a bandage covering for three days in a row and it completely cleared up! Since then (two months ago), I apply regular moisturizer every other day and it's never come back. I hope this helps someone!
P.S. Lansinoh is is pure lanolin ointment used for sore nipples and can be found in most pharmacies with the breastfeeding supplies.
