Hope it is so!! > Anyway, my sons have all had chronic extreme cradle cap since they were around 4 months old. My 3 y.o. and 7 y.o. STILL have it and nothing works. It is thick and orange and scaly and DISGUSTING. Luckily they have lots of dark, thick hair or well..yuck. Anyway...anyone have any idea if this could be linked to the gut issues or yeast or whatever and most importantly...anything new I can do? We have tried olive oil and combing it out, dandruff shampoos, Dr. Bronner's, OTC cradle cap shampoos...nothing gets rid of it. Dr. Bronner's reduces it for the baby but not for the older kids and it makes their heads smell odd...kind of musty. Ick. > > TIA, > Chrissy > mama to 3 boys on SCD 4 months+ and doing great.
