Itching: Eczema can cause a lot of itching in children and disturb their sleep quite a bit. Talk with your doctor about using a medication (steroid or non-steroid cream/ointment) to reduce the irritation. Keep your baby cool- when he's hot, he may itch more. Try to prevent him from scratching- it just makes it worse. Use a good moisturizer several times a day.
