I don't. DD doesn't have dry skin either. The only time she's ever had any issues with her skin is when I've put lotion on her.

Yes. DS is getting dry skin due to the heating and is prone to excema in spots. I am not as diligent as I used to be but I'm making an effort to lather him up after his bath.

DD has dry patches and has had some skin issues in the past. I use CeraVe cream after EVERY bath. Head to toe.
If I don't I catch her scratching.

Re: Do you use lotion?
I always did after a bath because it just made my DD smell extra yummy and feel extra soft. I still lotion her up after her shower...........and she's 4!

Re: Do you use lotion?
I use lotion after baths. Sometimes I use baby oil before baths for cradle cap. DD has dry skin.

Re: Do you use lotion?
It never occurred to me to put lotion on either of the girls. Their skin was not dry. I also could not have imagined adding an extra step at that point in the game. 2 colicky, reflux babies was a lot to handle.
Now that one of them has a few dry patches from the heat being on, I put some lotion on her dry patches.

Re: Do you use lotion?
No lotion, the ped actually advised against it. She told us only cream or ointments like aquaphor on the dry spots.
Lotions have alot of water in them so they don't do much for dry skin, creams work better.

DS has sensitive skin and eczema. I lather him up with aquaphor after every bath. That was the only lotion/ointment his PED recommended.

We lotion her up every day after her bath. She loves it - we call it her "spa" treatment.

Interesting - and want to add that I didn't even think to distinguish the two in my original response, but we use cream not lotion.

No. The times I do use it, is when she gets a tiny patch of mild eczema. Her skin isn't dry so I don't really use it
