hello! its cradle cap. You can use olive oil that is safe for baby's scalp. Apply it regularly (1-2 hours before bath time) and during bath time, gently rub with a comb or a washcloth. They won't come off all at one go.

cradle cap. its normal for babies. you can search on google. for mine i let it be. slowly it disappear but for severe once u can consult Dr. some may prescribe special shampoo or comb brush 😊 nothing to worry abt cradlecap

My baby used to have it too. PD suggested to apply olive oil. You can try using those cradle cap oil/shampoo, with the comb brush - try searching on Pupsik. Read good reviews on Mustela brand for those.

My bb was much worst than your bb. We used baby oil once a day, and it works! Applied for about a week and it’s about 90% clear :)
