My 3 month old went with me to a parade today. It was warm but not overly hot.. I had a broad brimmed hat on her, I kept her in the shade for the most part, and had her in a stroller with a shade cover, but it didnt help! Her face and nose got burned. under her eyes, on her forhead too. I was told at my last visit I couldnt put sun block on a baby under 6 months. My Ped told me to keep her out of direct sunlight and have her wear a hat, and just be cautious. I WAS and she still got a little burn. She was scratching at it, and wakes up crying now from sleep because of it. I have put some aloe juice on it but no creams... what else can I do? I used a cool rag and just placed it there but she will absolutely have nothing to do with that.

well aloe directly from an aloe tree works the best but you said youve already put aloe on.... good.... the towel is a good idea... you could try some lotion too sooth it a little more!

Calendula – Anti-inflammatory in action, this helps decrease the redness. Baking Soda or Apple Cider Baths – Add a cup of baking soda (or apple cider vinegar) to a luke-warm tub and soak.Herbal Soap – Always use natural oil based soaps when skin is dry and irritated.Commercial soaps can exacerbate the problem.

This tried and true remedy has worked for me and my mom for years. It is a little smelly, but safe!Wet a washcloth with cool water but don't wring it out-- pour about 4-5 tablespoons vinegar on it (any kind works) and pat the sunburned area with the wet cloth. You can also leave the cloth on the skin if it helps calm the pain. Allow the skin to air dry. It takes out the sting and the redness will go away sooner.
