Samuel has cradle cap, not much... little on the middle of his scalp. Cradle cap is very common to new born babies of two weeks to six months of age. It is yellowish or light brown in color, that looks like dandruff, but thicker. The cradle cap normally will drop off by itself, and we don't purposely try to remove them because this will hurt the baby's delicate scalp. So, I just shampoo Samuel's hair everyday to keep his head clean, to prevent the cradle cap from getting thicker.
BUT... Samuel scratched his head the other day when I was busy with something in the study room. He was sleeping outside in the living and when I heard him cry and rushed out to have a look at him, this is what I found...
My poor little baby...
Next time, I will make sure he is within my vision, no matter what I am doing.
