Cradle Cap is something I just can't stand to see on a sweet little baby head. This is something my midwife suggested with my first baby, and it has worked well on all of my children that have had it. Use a good olive oil, rub gently into baby's scalp. Let sit for a little while, then use baby comb and gently massage the scalp with the teeth of the comb. I usually do this right before bath time so we don't get oil everywhere. I only have to do this two or three times and we have a clear scalp.
Olive oil also works to help clear up baby acne, it seems to get a little worse when you first put it on, but it is just opening the pores and clears up really fast after that.
Olive oil is a healing oil and a great substitute for chemical laden baby lotions. |

Yup, we tried this with our first baby and it worked like a charm! :)

Thanks for posting this! We used coconut oil last time, and it worked well too. I don't know if I could call the brushing I did "gentle", though! I think "vigourous" would be a more fitting term, lol!
