Sensitive skin after shower

I’ve noticed over the last couple of months that when I get out the shower, I get red patches all over my skin. They don’t last very long but they do itch. Why or what could this be?

Will switching to formula help her sleep longer?

I am so sooo tired! My daugher is 6 months old and exclusively breast fed. The trouble is she barely sleeps at night. Goes to bed at 7.30 but will wake at half 12 and then basically every hour until 6am when she gets up for the day. I'm exhausted. I started weaning her at 5 and a half months thinki...

Re: New here

Thank you, i get more confident all the time but as you say it is about being organised with inhalers and aware of where potential triggers may be.

Re: Cleaning Products

I find I have to be careful what bath products and cosmetics i use because of Joe's asthma. For example my perfume or a highly scented bath foam can affect his asthma. Is this common?

Re: 11 month old with asthma

Thanks for your reply. I am actually quite relieved as it is easy to use the spacer and he knows what to expect with it. I have heard that inhalers can cause oral thrush. How likely is this and does a spacer prevent it?

Thanks again

Re: 11 month old with asthma

Hi I haven't been on here for a while but Joe has now been using the spacer for some time now and we all seem to be getting to grips with it. His wheezing is much improved. However should i be concerned about him using a spacer, should i try to wean him onto just the inhaler so he gets to grips with...

Re: Travel Insurance

My son's just been diagnosed with asthma - the idea I'd have trouble getting travel insurance hasn't even occured to me - anyone have any other information on this?

Re: Food

hello gibby - this is really interesting and something my doctor didn't even mention when I took Joe about his wheezing. I wonder why my doctor didn't suggest there could be a connection with food and asthma? I'm due to go back soon for a check to see how Joe's getting on - I will ask my gp then. Th...
