Cetaphil in the big tub!
I have heard ceraVe is good too.
I also do some other things to help my kids - only cotton clothing! Polyester really makes it flare up. A little baking soda in the bath.

Re: eczema cream
When DS gets really bad I put on a steroid cream that was prescribed from the doctor. I only put it on really bad spots. I treat the rest of his skin with coconut oil and cerave cream.

When DD's gets bad I also use a prescribed steroid cream. Twice a day for ten days. I feel like once it gets to a certain point, no amount of lotion or oil seems to help it. I use aquaphor every day to keep it at bay.

Re: eczema cream
Cerave is amazing. We tried everything. Prescriptions, over the counters and this is the only thing that worked.
We use the one in the tub.

Re: eczema cream
I use Aquaphor for DS. When it gets really bad then I use the prescription cream that the Dr gave us. I find that if I put tons of aquaphor on every night it helps to keep his skin from getting really bad.

Re: eczema cream
we used everything on the market and the ONLY thing that worked was Arbonne's ABC baby lotion andbody wash. I can't explain it but the difference was literally over night and by night 3 - it was nearly gone. PM me for more details

Regular but def get the one in the tub. Is there anyway she has a dairy allergy? Ds had horrible eczema as a newborn. I did a lot of research and I came across a lot of things saying that there is a link between the two. Sure enough, he was diagnosed at 6 months.

She was always on regular formula and never had a problem...she is 2 years old now and only breaks out sometimes so I don't think that's the problem but I will bring it up tomorrow at her appointment thanks for the suggestion

cerave in the tub, not pump. It's just a general kind, not a specific kid version.
