Baby looks like it has dry skin?

Question

y is my baby who is not only a week old have cracks in her skin they look like cuts or when someone has really dry skin

Answer 1

try  baby aveeno soothing lotion (unscented). my son was the same and it turned out the johnson and johnson products were drying out his skin. After switching to aveeno it took about a week to clear up!

Answer 2

newborns skin is very thin and fragile.  Just put some moisturizer on him like Johnson's and Johnson's baby lotion to keep the moisture in his skin.  He will peel but it won't last long.  If the lotion doesn't help, he may have eczema.  Ask your pediatrician.
