    My mother is a nurse and she use to work in the Dermatology department at a local clinic, so this was not news to me. Three out of our 5 kids have eczema, so we do cut down on the baths unless they get dirty. If you have a child with really bad eczema you should look up bleach baths. It sounds crazy, but it does work. One year my daughters eczema was horrible and even her prescription cream didn't help. The doctor recommended bleach baths and they worked wonders.

    I have three boys and boys should have a bath every other day if not every day bc if you know as well as I do they can get pretty dirty.
