Formula

• Eczema in babies may be a reaction to food allergies. If your baby experiences eczema it is important to change her formula to monitor if this will improve her condition. You can switch your baby to hypoallergenic formula for a few weeks. Babies who are breastfed have a lower risk of developing eczema. In the first three months of life, a baby can depend on her mother's milk to build up her immune system and overcome allergies that may lead to eczema.
