Baby Hat Fun In The Sun

Anytime we go outside, we are constantly vigilant to turn Cassidy’s head and face away from any direct sunlight.

While we have a great collection of sun hats for her baby head, we haven’t yet had the opportunity to don many of them as Cassidy seems very agitated and uncomfortable when we try to put them on her.

Right after birth Cassidy had a layer of dry skin that looked very much like she had suffered a mild sunburn all over her body … which was impossible since she hadn’t even left the hospital let alone gotten any direct sun light. This dry skin eventually disappeared with subsequent bathings and applications of moisturizing lotion. The dry skin on her head however has not yet completely disappeard, and even after several weeks we are constantly attending to what seems to be a dry scalp.

We have been reassured that it is completely normal but nonetheless we keep trying to protect her head even further by trying on her collection of funky head gear … hopefully one day she’ll enjoy wearing them. If she looks half as good as her mom does in hats, we’re a lucky family indeed.
