Wet wraps are like bandages that u soak in cold water then you wrap around the affected area, it alleviates the itching and also stops them scratching if bad may be worth asking gp about getting some.

You could try oatmeal in the bath too. This is really good. I tried Lush dream cream on Jonny's eczema because he kept having to have hydrocortisone cream on flare ups. The lush cream is amazing and I won't use anything else now I have found it.

I find the epaderm really good for Gabriel it keeps everything under control. Kayleigh's eczena was gtting worse and the aqueous was a waste of space so used some of Gabriel's epaderm and its clearing up nicely, i have stopped drinking orange squash too 'cos i don't think that was helping.

I do everything by the book when pg, have bf both her and DS til 9 months plus yet he has asthma, eczema and food intolerances, and now Alisha may have asthma, and Kayleigh has some eczema too although Alisha had the odd patch and grew out of it). Where did i go wrong?

I hope Kayleigh can be weaned as late as possible. Alisha was weaned at 4 months (as per govement guidelines at the time) and there was no way i could have left her any longer.
