Baby Eczema Keeps Coming Back with a Vengence. Help!

My baby has pretty severe eczema on her face! the doc told me to use Hydrocortizone for flare ups and keep her skin hydrated all the time. That is what we've been doing, however the day after I stop use of the hydrocortizone she flares up again.. and it's bad! I am going to adjust the soap - or rather stop all together and see what happens. I am already using "free" detergents and such. But I'm wondering if any of you have advice on what to do b/c I don't want to keep using hydrocortizone on the face - even the doc said extended use can...

2 Year Old Still on the Bottle

Does anyone have any suggestions of how to get my 2 year old off of the bottle? He is still on formula as well, we are trying to get him on other foods but he has a very selective diet due to him being allergic to everything.

Problem with Milk?

My 16mo old daughter has been spitting up and having diarrhea/very soft stool since birth. She was on milk-based formula and has been on whole milk since a year of age. She eats whatever we eat, and has a very healthy appetite. She was diagnosed at a year with beign anemic, which I thought odd, being on iron since birth. I voiced my concerns about her still spitting up each day, and her diarrha and terrible raw skin each time she had a poopy diaper changed. The pediatrician did not seem concerned at all, but I am. I decided to do my own...

Seeking Free/ Low Cost Doula

Im in the Los Angeles area and have had one heck of a year. Just a little background. I had a still born daughter in March of 2007. It was a devastating loss and my dh and I just knew we had to try again. I found out I was pregnant again In August of 2007. All of a sudden my DH leaves me while 2 months pregnant. He steals everything I have and now we are going through divorce. On top of that I lost my job in December, the company I worked for went bankrupt. No one will hire me to make any kind of income since Im due in just 6 weeks now and...

3 Months and Won't Take a Bottle HELP!

My daughter will be 3 months next week and I'm breast feeding her. I tried to introduce the bottle at 5-6 weeks (way too late) and now I can't get her to take the bottle. Only a handful of times she's taken it and she stopped at 2 oz. So I know she can take that nipple. Most the time when I try she ends up crying so bad I feel like I'm torturing her. I know she's hungry. I have had my husband try but he doesn't have the patience nor the skill. I'm going back to work on Jan 19th. I'm an out side sales rep so I can come home to feed...

Diaper Rash Problems

I have a 14 month old son who has a TERRIBLE diaper rash. It isn't like his entire bottom is red...it is more spotty. He has three spots that I just can't get to go away. I feel so bad for him as I know it really hurts. He can't sit down in the bathtub. The spots are like open sores and I know the wipes really sting, along with the desitin. This started over Thanksgiving and it just doesn't seem to be getting better. I've switched to Butt Paste, also tried Corn Starch. I also let him run around every night with no diaper on for...

What Brand Makeup Do You Use?

Has anyone tried Lancome makeup? I'm currently using Mac foundation and I like how the color matches my skin; however, it seems to be really cakey when I wear it and it is so obvious that I'm wearing foundation. I tried Clinque but it was too dark for me. I have very fair skin and have a hard time matching my skin tone. Any other good brands out there?

Breastfeeding and Eczema...

My daughter is breastfed and was sensative to milk from birth with eczema that developed at 2 months. I went on a strict elimination diet and found only rice and meat was tolerated, nothing else no fruit no dairy no soy. Her skin cleared for a month BUT now her eczema is back!!! Why?! I didn't change my diet, even tried eliminating rice and still no change. It's just slowly creeping back!!!! Help! Do elimination diet results not last? What am I suppose to feed her? Also she refuses any bottle.

Two Small Complications...

I just recently had my baby boy and he's amazing. Doesnt really cry all to much except when he's hungry. The problems I have may just be in my head but they kind of bother me. First of all, I'm breastfeeding and at first my son would suck so hard he's chock on my nipple so i had to use a nipple sheild. Now he's gotten the hang of it and is sucking without needing the nipple sheild BUT one of my breasts are WAY bigger then the other. I've made sure that he eats the same amount on each breast since day one. I've kept a log of all of it...
