calendula is the only thing that helps with my boys eczema but yes there usually is a food related cause. Have you cut the apples? I hadn't thought about the oatmeal until Jaumis comment, but the worst case if eczema I've ever seen ended up being caused by oatmeal.<BR/><BR/>I hope Jonah gets feeling better! You hanging in there?

I don't know if you're feeding him solids yet or not, but if you're feeding him cereals then you might want to stay clear of barley and oatmeal (although sometimes oatmeal doesn't effect them). TheBeast has it too, and I couldn't feed her wheat until she was 15 months old because it would make her skin worse. She's 23 months now and except for a tiny bit on her arms she's cleared all up. I really

Last winter Carter got eczema pretty bad on his cheeks. We never found any "cause" for it, and believe me I tried. I cut EVERYTHING out of my diet thinking maybe it was a food allergy. Nothing. Ashlee recommended Calendula Cream by California Baby. This stuff is AMAZING. After a couple weeks it had cleared up and as long as I kept using it once a day the eczema didn't come back. <BR/><BR/>Arianne

I have used a balm (I'll send you the link) that helps keep Jamie's under control, and also a remedy for when it gets really bad, but the only real way to treat it is to find out what's causing it. Without finding the cause, you will get stuck always going from flare-up to flare-up, and it will get worse as he gets older and can scratch it. Start with the laundry soap. <BR/><BR/>Also, garlic
