What hand lotion is good for cracked mommy hands, yet okay for infants?

I typically don't have cracked hands til about January, but I've been afraid to put any lotion on my hands with a baby. Now my hands are cracked and bleeding, yet I'm still nervous to put it on my hands because DS is sucking on everything lately. Do I use baby lotion or just deal with it? HELP!!!!! TIA!! Chat Icon

We had the same problem.

I used Shea Butter with no scent but I would check with your pediatrican. Anything else in the Shea Butter & he would cry (I think because it stinged).

Someone on here suggested it, but I have leftover Lasinoh creme since I stopped BF and it works wonders. I have used it in some dry spots, my chapped lips and even DD!!

aveeno is fine and also try sleeping with vaseline on your hands and gloves over them.. you will wake up with new hands!!

My hands are usually horrible in the cold weather. I use aveeno and our ped. also recommended it for DS (he has dry patches on his leg). So far, So good.Chat Icon

I was going to say Aquaphor but I like Aveeno also because it's not so "vaseliney".
