 Protecting Babies Skin
When our children where babies they had an awful time with red irritated skin. We had a pediatrician tells us that it my sound weird but the best cure for dry skin in the winter time for your baby and toddler, is Cooking Lard. The Pedia- trician would always repeat himself and tell us get out the Crisco. When we finally did listen it worked great, he was right. |
