Cradle cap is horrible. My five month old
had it a few times. I got a special
shampoo at wal mart for cradle cap and
used it a couple times. After you used it
in their hair take a comb or brush and
gently rub their scalp to loosen the
flakes. It may take quite a few times,
especially if your child has hair.
As far as potty training goes, I can't be
a lot of help because I only have an
infant but I can give some tips from
working in daycare. First, try getting a
potty chair and let your child get used to
it. They aren't always ready when mom is.
Let him sit in the chair-you don't even
have to pull his diaper off. Just give him
lots of praise for sitting there. Once he
seems interested you can try setting him
on the potty to use it. Hope this helps. I
hope someone with more potty training
experience can help you.

when my son had cradle cap ( know its not
recommended) but i baby oiled his head and
GENTLY took a baby brush and dug at the
loose pieces about once every 4 days or so
until it was gone
but the potty tryining.... with a new baby
in the house it will be extremely
difficult.... make sure to give him lots
of praise-- tell him what a big boy he is-
not a baby... but you still may want to
wait a couple months in my opinion

I also have heard this oil trick. You can
use a baby comb. Don't dig at it, but
most of the loose pieces will just gently
lift off as you comb. I have done this
before with good results. The remaining
oil will moisturize the scalp.
How old is your son whom you want to
train?
