Yeah, what kind of doc *are* you? I add my voice to the insightful Mrs
Gallagher ;-)

1. Breast or bottle-fed?
2. You presumably tried ketoconazole shampoo?
3. Oats. Yes, raw porridge oats, cupful in a sock (or end bit of Mrs'
tights), tie knot, soak in bath water 5 mins before pluging babe in
(Tip: very good for Mrs' skin too!).
4. Add: coconut oil (cocois if you want to be posh and spend more money).
Rub this onto said scalp.
5. If bottle-fed, worth considering cow's milk intolerance (provided
cradle cap is not fungal, take scrapings).
6. If the cradle is really bad, get a french polisher ;-)

PS: items 1-5 are kosher, item 6 is ;-) OK?
PPS: what is a 'cadke'?
