Is this heat rash?
Hello all parent, the back of my LO's head and neck has this rashes that im suspecting is heat rash, what can i do to make them better?
Yeah most likely it’s heat rash. It’s quite normal especially the first month. Is there breastmilk available? If yes, you may have a milk bath for your LO. Wipe your LO’s head with a clean wash cloth dipped in cooled boiled water and make sure the environment is not too warm. Wear loose clothings underneath swaddle. It will go away on its own, within a week or two. Sometimes in a few days.

We find that Cetaphil advanced protection cream works well on our little one after rashes develop. Thereafter, applying Cetaphil daily lotion 2-3 times a day prevents from recurring. Applying little breastmilk works wonder too.
