And I thought I was the only one! *g* I do not use soap either, haven't in

years and years. Well, actually I will use it SOME times on *some* parts (of me)

but never on my babies. My babysitter , until I told her not to, used to use it

on the twins if she bathed them and my daughter had the driest skin!! Since we

stopped that - no more dry skin. I put them in the tub to soak and just

shampoo.

For my 2 and a half year old, I use one teaspoon flaxseed oil per

day--seems to me there is a weight recommendation on the bottle. No

reaction except good health!

For Kezia's skin cream, I use Calundula Baby Cream by Weleda. It is

Swiss, homeopathic wild crafted botanicals...etc etc. Phone #

By the way, there is no need to use soap what-so-ever. I haven't used

bathing soap for over 40 years and I never used it on my

children--especially babies. If you don't use soap, the natural oils can

fill the pores and the dirt, paint, etc. won't " stick " --just use a good

natural bristle brush with some " elbow grease " and you will be clean and

have great skin that stays " young " longer. When one gets as old as I, one

appreciates that!

Have you looked at The Exema Connection? http://www.eczema.cc/

They have a terrific plan for exema control.
