Poor baby Julia, she has acne all over her face and a diaper rash. She's had the acne for about a week already and it's slowly going away. We went to the doc's office on Monday and suggested using Head and Shoulders (the dandruff shampoo) to wash the hair and face. Apparently, the oils from her hair are dripping down onto her face (even though you can't see it) and causing the pimples. So we are doing this now, hoping the acne will go away in a few days.
I only noticed the diaper rash tonight. No wonder Julia cried every time I changed her diaper. It must be so painful. The rash covered the entire diaper area, all red with little tiny dots. We've been using newborn diapers, from Huggies and Pampers (thanks YJ!). We finished all the Huggies diapers already and was using the 2nd pack of the Pampers. I am wondering if Julia is sensitive to something in the Pampers diapers...as it smells fragrant and has a mesh interior, which I've read can cause friction on the skin. Anyways, I packed up the Pampers diapers, put them away and started using the Huggies size 1 diapers we bought. I'm also blowdrying Julia's l'il bum and putting on Penaten cream before putting on the diaper. Hope the rash goes away soon.
