My son Eli is about 7 months old, and I would say he's got pretty fair skin and it's easily irritated. But I don't see a reason for the way he looks sometimes. First of all, his whole body (looking up close only) kind of almost always looks just a LITTLE bit rashy. Like tiny little red dots here and there just all over. Nothing you would see just looking at him, but when you're looking for it you can see it. A lot of the time he'll get a rash just above his private area too, under his diaper. It's a little worse than what it looks like on his body, but not bad enough that I wonder if he's allergic to the diapers. (he's allergic to a lot of diapers, it doesn't look like this.)
And other than that, his cheeks and sometimes chin are ALWAYS red and appear a bit dry no matter what I do!! I am constantly putting baby oil and Aquafor on his face, and I don't use soap on his face in the bath, and if I wipe his face off at all, I only use a wash cloth with water (cause wipes dry him out worse). Sometimes it helps for a little while, but not that much and it always comes back.
Can anybody help me with this? Anything that could be wrong with him? Anything I can do? Anything? Lol.
