Tyler and I noticed about a week ago that the skin on Richie's elbows and knees was really dry. So like a good mommy, I started putting baby lotion and baby oil on my dry skinned baby.
But his skin was only getting worse!
So on Friday, we called our pediatrician's office to set up an appointment to see what was going on. (We figured it was probably eczema, but we wanted to be sure it wasn't something more serious.)
Turns out, we were right.
But, in only a matter of 24 hours, we've seen significant improvement. (Thanks to the steroid oil and cetaphil cream recommended by the doctor.)
And although Richie HATES bathing every day (soak and seal!), I'm sure he appreciates having healthier, less dry skin.
(Fun fact: Richie now weighs 11 lbs 6 oz!)
