My daughter has it and she gets out breaks cause of the heat and sweat! I use cortisone intense healing!  And venager in her bath water! It keeps it well tamed but when it gets bad she has her prescription cream!

Try the new gold bond eczema cream.  Works on my daughter.

I haven't had a flare up in months, but when I do I use eucerin the cream not the lotion and it works wonders for me. Also a aveeno oatmeal bath soothes itching for me but the eucerin cream usually clears it up completely in about a week with consistent use.

i am.really bad its nothing to do with food for me its just the hormones being produced and the effort it takes me to grow the baby my body just gives up trying.  the only thing thats helped me really is putting on my cream every hour on the hour.  this is my second baby it was the same with my first and a week after my son was born my skin went back to normal.

My husband gets it - his doctor told him to keep a diary to see if they could figure out any connections.
I have heard dairy, wheat, sugar and eggs to be common triggers

Mine is terrible and about to drive me insane! I started wearing a hazelwood necklace just a couple days ago to see if that will help. I'm desperate! Mine started because I ate too much dairy (I'm allergic to it) and usually I can just cut back and it'll clear up. I guess the baby is in charge of my body now! It's been weeks and is just awful!
