lots of lotion, that's what has helped me. Palmer's also has a spray that I spray on my belly while it's still damp from the shower and it helps me survive the work day.

Oooh, I didn't know about the Palmer's spray. I like the Palmer's coconut oil formula "Soothing Oil." It sure helps. And like Jessica said, lotion helps a lot too.

My son gets eczema from time to time, I use a mixture of garlic and coconut oil and it clears him up within a week. I have also found just straight coconut oil (the kind you cook with) has gotten rid of dry skin patches on me and gotten rid of the sunburns with my daughters.

Hi Makala:

I hope it's appropriate to post information about my own products, but, there is a product I created some years ago for issues such as yours. Please keep in mind that for long-term care, it would be best for you (and baby) to receive a health consultation to fully address the eczema. The product's name is "Ball of Light Belly & Body Oil". See if it interests you and if you have any sensitivities to the ingredients.
