Can having a baby give you eczema? What works well to treat it?
I had my son 4 yrs ago. I never had eczema before then, that i know of. My son had eczema when he was a baby. He itched alot and I used all the creams and it went away pretty much. He doesnt reallly itch like that any more. I got diagnosed with eczema after he was about one yrs old. never had it before. I have it on my back and sometimes it flares up on my neck area a lil, and down my chest too. I dont know if this is normal to be diagnosed with it so late in life. I never had this before having him. Does that freederm stuff really work? I used cortisones and aveeno too. and they havent really helped me with the itch. I know itching is systemic, too. So the more i itch the more its gonna itch. But I need a cure or something to stop this itching!!!!

I don’t know about the connection between a baby and eczema, but I have eczema and I found that Palmer’s Cocoa Butter really softens and smoothes the skin. I bought for an entirely different reason, as it’s supposed to help reduce scars and stretchmarks, but when I tried it, it really soothed and softened the eczema area!
Keep in mind its main ingrediant is cocoa butter, so if you’re not a fan of chocolate the smell might make you sick.
