My little boy had eczema when he was 2-7 months old, all cleared up now. I was told to only bath him twice a week as water dries his skin out which we have carried on doing now even with him in nursery and just give a wash with a flannel other days. That helped so much alongside a steriod cream the Dr gave us and hasn't come back since! The less baths was a gane changer!

Infantile excema goes hand in hand with asthma or other chesty complaints. It runs in our family. Irritating while it lasts but thankfully outgrows.

@Gina19876 Жыл бұрын

Topical steroids best. They thin the skin if overused but infantile excema is usually outgrown. Can go hand in hand with croup or asthma though but also outgrows.

Yes definitely don’t bath your baby every day this drys out there skin by removing the oils from there skin hence resulting in dry flaky skin cetraben cream is good as it forms a barrier on the skin hope this helps from a dermatology nurse xx

To begin with yous popped up on KZfaq and I’d watch your videos unsubscribed (I’m sorry) and when yous put up your video of getting pregnant with your twins I remember crying so much with happiness but also craving that moment I seen a positive test. Then your fertility journey, it hit me so much. Myself and my partner had been struggling for 3 years. When you uploaded your fertility journey I cried my eyes out with happiness for a couple I barely knew because I knew how much it meant to yous both. I watched that video multiple times to take in the emotions and happiness within yous. Little did I know that I was also pregnant 🥹 I had my little boy last month, your videos throughout your pregnancy helped me so much. Your journey was very similar to ours. I have never commented on your videos until now but I can honestly say every inch of emotion yous both felt within your journey myself and my partner felt it too , we’ve watched your videos and it’s helped us a lot! Yous are amazing parents and yous are a great team. Much love from Scotland ❤️

As a mom of big twin boys 7.7 & 8.5 at birth- they were hungry… but I was so tired. At the same age as yours are now I needed to make a change.I didn’t have help with the feedings and knew I needed the sleep more than they needed a night feed. So 2 nights in a row that got boiled water(cooled of course) they were not interested in that so they trained themselves not to wake in the night. So their last feed was 10:30 and they woke up very hungry at around 5:30 am -7 hours straight sleep was a miracle. I am glad to see you found something that works for you.

Seeing what you make up for the night reminds me of our routine for our son 42yrs ago I'd warm several bottles and wrap in rolled towels and leave in our washroom counter to keep warm during the night and handy when he woke up. Which was often. Glad you found a way to get them to sleep thru.

Fab and Ellen, you two are smashing it as twin parents! I'm so happy that the sleep training is working so well for you! I had a much tougher time with my twin boys( who are your age now.) It was just me caring for them, as their dad didn't help me. It was total chaos at night, as I would go from one to the other, and not getting much sleep at all myself. Their older brother was 4, and daytimes were spent driving him to and from pre-school. Luckily I only worked weekends( I'm a registered nurse,) and I'm grateful that most nights I was able to be home with my boys. Anyway, I love watching Noah and Ari grow, they are such handsome little boys! Sending my love from across the pond.❤️🇺🇸

I started watching you two when you had the boys because I have a 5 month old baby born right around the same time.

Keep up the amazing work with these videos guys, baby Eve and I love watching 😊

Fab and Ell, you are great parents. You're doing a fantastic job in raising your two boys. I love what you have done with their sleeping schedules. Babies have an innate sense to know what works for them, as well as for Moms and dads. Also, keeping the boys with you, in your bedroom, does make them feel safe. I also love the fact you did your homework, in finding out, what works best for you, and your babies. That is the most important aspect of your parenting. If it works for your family... you have done a fantastic job. Sending you much Love and Blessings your way. Cheers👏👌👍🙏

You are both such committed parents. I babysat 2 babies and helped my sister with r or her 5 kids ( the 5th child was born after I moved several provinces away) I also raised a daughter 33 and a son 30. It is not an easy job but you two are so honest with what your life is like. The good, the bad, and the ugly. It is always a joy to see Fab helping as much as he does. I have had share of bedtimes to deal with. My son hated to sleep so he was a chore but my daught slept through the night - 12 hours with no bottle. She was a gem as an infant.Keep doing what you are doing. The boys are thriving

My dream is to visit England! My ancestors are from West Country. My Nan and Pop still had an intact dialect that resembled that area…with just a bit of an Irish accent mixed in due to our heritage. The people of my Nan and Pop’s age were actually labelled British or Irish…with nationality being British due to having not joined Canada by that point. When I think back to my childhood, we were very “old fashioned,” and so much of the culture was intact. It has changed now, but I just love my heritage so much. I hope I get there before I die!!

I have 7 grandsons. The youngest is 5 years old now. No twins but my daughter had her 4 boys very close together and my second son has 3 that are close together. The white noise is great for sleep training. Y’all are doing amazing with your precious boys. Can’t wait until they are crawling and walking. That’s a whole new ballgame! Lol. Have a great weekend.
