The Darkest Time

This is part of a series of posts about Penny's eczema story.  To start at the beginning, go here.

After the GAPS diet, we got to some sort of normal for a while, but still never enough sleep.  I was applying topical steroids very sparingly and still only using coconut oil instead of the Vanicream we'd had success with before GAPS.

GAPS Diet

This is part of a series of posts about Penny's eczema story.  To start at the beginning, go here.

When Penny was about a year old, I came across a group on Babycenter.com about eczema and learned how to do a soak and seal bath and select good moisturizers like Vanicream.  Like so many things, these helped a little, but the relentless itch never disappeared.
