1. Healing Minor Skin Irritations
-
Baby acne: Dab a few drops on the affected area.
-
Eczema or dry patches: Apply topically to soothe and moisturise.
-
Diaper rash: A little breast milk can calm redness and inflammation.
-
Cradle cap: Massage into scalp before gently brushing flakes out.
2. Eye Infections (like conjunctivitis)
-
A few drops in the eye have been traditionally used to soothe pink eye (always consult your doctor first, though — just to be safe).
3. Nasal Congestion
-
Use a few drops of breast milk in each nostril (like saline drops) to help loosen mucus in stuffy noses.
4. Ear Infections
-
A drop or two in the ear can provide comfort due to its anti-inflammatory properties — again, not a replacement for medical care, but sometimes used as a home remedy.
5. Nipple Care
-
Rub a little on your nipples after feeding. It helps heal soreness, dryness, and cracking (like nature’s nipple cream).
6. Milk Baths
-
Add a few ounces to baby’s bath for soft, soothed skin. Great for eczema, rashes, or just some spa vibes.
7. Teething Relief
-
Freeze breast milk in small molds or mesh feeders for teething popsicles — soothing and nutritious!
8. First Aid
-
Use breast milk to help minor cuts, scrapes, or insect bites heal a little faster due to its antimicrobial properties.
9. Treating Thrush
-
Apply to baby’s mouth or your nipples after feeding to help combat yeast infections, though anti-fungal treatment might still be needed.
10. Donate it
-
If you have a little extra, investigate donating it to your local milk bank.
