After a long weekend of traveling (yay! My boy is home!) and not-so-hot eating, I started my Monday off with a little bit o' Jillian!
Stuck to the10 pound kettlebell because I wasn't sure what I was in for, and I'll be sticking with that for this week! Awesome
sweat fest workout!
Followed by a new cereal for breakfast
Not as "grape nutty"as I'd hoped,but pretty tasty none the less.
And a new soup for lunch. I have to say, Progresso light totally impressed me. I went to lunch expecting a bland soup and was pleasantly surprised! Nice work, Progresso!
Hoped to get a run in after work, but got the hairs did instead (pic tomorrow, if you're lucky)! Since it's raining now and I refuse to hit the treadmill tonight, looks like I'll watch Michigan kick some Louisville butt!!
Go Blue!

Medicaid's progress and fragility
The best-kept secret in Connecticut's health care landscape is our Medicaid turnaround. In the last four years access to care is up, quality is improving, and costs are under control. Things are far from perfect and there is lots of room to improve, but Medicaid is moving in the right direction.
Provider participation is up 32 percent, which is very timely as we added over 100,000 people to the program that now covers one in five state residents. Fewer Medicaid members rely on the emergency department for routine health problems and more people are getting preventive care.
The total-cost-of-care per person has consistently trended down, by 4.1 percent just last year. Total state spending on Medicaid dropped 4.2 percent last year. We didn't just bend the cost curve, we nailed it. We can thank federal largesse and the Affordable Care Act for part of that trend.
But the sustainable downward trend came the old-fashioned way -- by coordinating care in person-centered medical homes, targeting high utilizers with high touch supports, and a single data source combined with intelligent analysis and planning. Other states are taking notes on our success. But progress like that is always fragile.
It will be important in the year ahead to ensure that Medicaid payment reform efforts are thoughtful and build on what is working so well.
Payment reform requires political will
No one disagrees that the way we pay for health care needs change. It's no surprise that paying for volume with no regard to quality doesn't work. Along with unsustainable cost growth, this payment scheme rewards overtreatment and waste that is harming our health. Change is imperative, but if we don't learn from our history we will repeat it. Managed care in the 1990's failed because care wasn't really managed. Despite evidence it wasn't working, policymakers were slow to regroup and fix the problems.
Consumers and advocates grew increasingly concerned about underservice – the inappropriate denials of care. We were assured that health plans had no incentive to deny needed care, as people would end up in more expensive care. Unfortunately it didn't work out that way. Like the rest of the country, Connecticut is reforming the way we pay for healthcare. The latest plan is now to shift financial risk onto providers in large networks hoping that is the key to lowering costs – and it may be.
It makes sense that providers control the vast majority of health care spending.
There are two ways to generate savings. The old way is to deny people care, regardless of value. The right way is to reduce duplication and low-value care while helping people with tools to keep themselves healthy. Giving providers resources to sort out what care we really need and what is wasteful makes sense. They should be compensated for that hard work; sharing the savings is the least we can do.
New data and analytical tools offer the potential to target resources where they are needed and to see problems earlier. But that is only half the solution – we also need the political will to make changes to the system when needed. Change is hard, especially in Connecticut.
Insiders craft rules that suit them
One person's waste is another's bottom line, especially in health care. Connecticut spends over $30 trillion on our health every year. We can debate whether that is too much and crowds out other important spending, or it reflects what our society values and adds to our quality of life.
But most agree that we aren't spending it as well as we should. One area of deep concern, all too common in Connecticut, is when resources are directed to insiders. Many attempts at past reforms in our state failed, at least in part, because self-interested parties dominated policymaking and implementation. Health care is complicated, and the reforms we've chosen have only added to the complexity. The state budget crisis means that policymakers charged with implementing reforms, have few independent, internal information sources to rely on. This vacuum is usually filled
by industry insiders who dominate the process, too often crafting the rules to suit their needs, not ours. We really don't have extra money or extra time to spare for insiders, the stakes are too high. Insiders don't need to be included at policy tables as voting members to get their input.
There are plenty of successful models of ethical and inclusive policymaking from other states and at the federal level. In the next year, policymakers need to be vigilant about choosing the right standards and the best groups to implement new models, not just familiar faces.
The impacts of consolidation on Connecticut's healthcare system
Like the rest of the country, Connecticut's health care markets are concentrating. If recently proposed mergers are approved, one insurer will control two thirds of enrollment in our state.
Twenty years ago all of Connecticut's hospitals were independent, but soon eight in ten inpatients will be cared for in a large, multi-hospital system. There is good evidence that mergers raise prices and reduce competition. The impact on quality is mixed at best and there is no question that mergers reduce consumer choice.
State and federal policymakers have few levers to hold down costs or protect people in mergers. Perhaps more troubling than these horizontal mergers is the rush into vertical health care mergers such as hospitals combining with private practices, and provider networks combining with or starting their own insurance businesses. As consumers advocate for needed care, we often have doctors on our side arguing with insurers to cover the service.
With mergers that balance is lost, as the provider is too often at financial risk for the cost of the treatment. There is very little evidence that these corporate mergers enhance care coordination. Too often merged entities still use multiple information systems that don't talk to each other, groups within the system continue to accept only the payers they choose, often excluding Medicaid members, and nothing changes in patient care.
Mergers are both a symptom and a driver of the problems in our health system; patient choice, competition, and truly coordinated care are the solutions.

Bookish academic Diana Laughton has been having terrible dreams. Dreams of battle, dreams of blood... dreams so vivid she's living them day and night. When demons invade her quiet life, she wonders if she's going mad. Or if perhaps she's remembering a past life she had no idea existed...
In the midst of betrayal, he must protect her
Mythean Guardian Cadan Trinovante loved and betrayed Britain's warrior queen Boudica two millennia ago. Now he's tasked with protecting mortals whose lives affect the fate of humanity. His latest assignment is Boudica herself, reincarnated as a woman with no idea of her past or her fated future. Though in the irresistible form of Diana Laughton, it's possible Cadan has once again met his match...
To succumb to seduction could prove fatal
Thrown together in a shadowy world that exists alongside our own, Diana and Cadan must fight not only the demonic forces that want Diana dead, but a past and a passion that have lasted centuries. Their desire could be deadly. But as evil from the underworld unites against them, their only hope could be each other.
Diana has always had incredibly realistic and often frightening dreams but recently her nightmares seem to be encroaching on her reality. When she is attacked by a strange and fierce creature that's not human, it's as if something long forgotten awakens inside her and she kills the monster. Left reeling and confused, Diana is stunned when a tattoo appears on her wrist. As she's a keen student of history, she recognises it as a landmark in Edinburgh, Scotland and feels strangely compelled to go there.
Cadan is an ancient warrior who has been granted immortality to fight the demons that would destroy life here on Earth. Once he loved a woman with all his heart, but he watched as her life ebbed out of her. That woman was Boudica, the queen of the Iceni, and Cadan tried so hard to protect her but now lives with the guilt of knowing she felt betrayed by him. When Diana appears, it's clear she carries the soul of the long dead Celtic queen, but why now has she finally been reborn? There's something happening in the Underworld and only with Diana's help can the balance be maintained but Caden will do all he can to protect his resurrected lover whether she wants it or not!
I wasn't sure at first if I would be completely hooked by this concept but the characters won me over. Diana is such a revelation as she willingly embraces this new and let's be honest strange world she finds herself in. She's never fazed or hesitant and yes, I could quite believe she carried the soul of such a strong warrior woman. Diana constantly embraced her new role and wholeheartedly fought to get to the truth. Unfortunately, the maddening Cadan tried very hard to conceal the truth from her but Diana is a very determined woman!
Cadan, oh Cadan, what can I say about you? You were doomed to love a woman who could not be everything you needed in a partner; a woman with a mission that consumed her. Poor Cadan was born in a time when women were to be protected and his attitude still shows this. His desire to protect first Bouduca and now Diana sees him making terrible mistakes and I wanted to shake him, but Diana is a thoroughly modern woman and more than a match for him. In fact this is a romance, but it's not two people instantly going at it like rabbits no it's a fierce attraction that simmers between the couple and when they finally get horizontal they (metaphorically) set the sheets on fire!
So a great start to a completely unique series. I'm very intrigued by the supporting characters and there's a wealth of magical talents for Ms Hall to explore. There's still a lot to find out about these Mytheans and I for one can't wait to discover more.
Highly Recommend!!!!

The first week of term and wow what a week it was... we were all very excited about our new children starting last week and it was great to be able to welcome them into the forest. It's been so lovely getting to know them all, watching them explore the forest and of course, make lots of new friends.
We've been blessed with yet even more mud this week as we started to catch the first glimpse of Autumn. It's been a week full of fun and imagination, with lots of muddy play and dressing up games in fancy dress... we really had to watch out for those forest pirates and princesses!
The children also had lots of fun on the forest swing, working on their balancing and coordination skills whilst swinging back and forth with big smiles all round. And of course there was even time for a story, this week the children's favourite book was Supertato! The story was all about a super potato, so this morning the children were really excited to go on a super hero adventure of their own!

Breakfast Assortment:
-Steel cut oats, blueberries, and chia seeds
-Hard-boiled egg
-Dill, spinach, and feta cheese egg cups
-Smoked salmon
FYI: No, I don't eat all of this at once. I generally have my tea and oatmeal upon waking, and since I digest carbohydrates rather quickly, I eat the eggs, etc. about an hour later, usually while driving to work ("finger food" FTW).
Breakfast is so important. It gives you fuel for the day. If you deprive yourself of fuel (food), then your tank will run out of gas quickly. Eat your big meals around the times when you are most active during the day (i.e. when working or exercising). "But why do I need 'fuel' when I'm working?" Your brain consumes about one fifth of your body's total energy use. Want to think clearly and deeply? Want energy to exercise? Eat substantial, nutritious foods.
Not sure what you should eat for breakfast? Your meal does not have to be fancy; try a complex carbohydrate (i.e. oatmeal, whole grain toast, etc.) with a protein source (i.e. egg) to ensure satiety.
Your biggest meal should be in the morning, not at night several hours prior to sleeping. Why? Because you do not need a lot of fuel to sleep. Your body has other important things to take care of when you are sleeping; digesting food is not a top priority.

RM Williams has been making fine boots for the past eighty years. The company was founded by Reginald Williams who learned about shoe making from Dollar Mick. Together, they constructed boots that are to be used by workers in the bush who are exposed to rough terrains. The RM Williams line of boots is very soft and durable that the bush workers find them very comfortable for field work. Today, they have expanded their product line and you can see on their website that they have boots for all occasions for both men and women. The line of clothing is also something to consider as the garments that are uses are very soft and durable.
Shoe construction of RM Williams boots
The first thing they consider is the leather they use for the boots. They usually use yearling leather because of its softness and durability. Then there is also the kangaroo leather which also possesses softness and durability. The other kinds of leather used in the line of boots of RM Williams are young calf from France and suede leather. Fro made to order boots, crocodile leather and ostrich leather may be requested.
The shoe construction will prevent wearers from getting blisters from first-time use of the boots. This is achieved by breaking-in the shoes.
Even before they release the boots for selling, the boots have already been break in so the upper portion of the boots have extended and the boot will immediately conform to the shape of the feet. A polyester bound elastic thread is used on all RM Williams boots for sewing the boots which add softness and comfort. Then they use a nylon thread for double stitching each boot and then close it using a single seam at the back of the heel part of the boots. This singe seam is the signature of RM Williams as it prevents the feet from getting blisters even from the first-time usage. Then a tag is sewn at the back of the boots so the wearer can easily remove the shoes with just one pull of the tag.
Welt soles are used in all RM Williams boots. The welt soles give softness and comfort. A thermo plastic laminated toe stiffeners are used in order to allow the shoes to conform to the shape of the feet. This will also prevent the shoes from getting out of shape. In order to stiffen the heels of the boots, molded heel are used and added in between the linings which make the boots durable. Lastly only waxed threads are used to sew the heels which make the RM Williams boot s extra softer and comfortable.

I am all about ease of use. If there's an easier way to do it, I'll usually try that way. And let's be real here… it's not always possible to soak a flour in time before guests arrive to make perfect biscuits or whatever carb-y side thing you might have planned.
And don't even get me started on sprouted or fermenting (read: sourdough) … that nonsense can take DDDAAAAYYYSSSS.
Meet Einkorn.
Yes, it's a grain. Yes, it's wheat. And no, I don't soak it.
Say wwhhhaaaatt?!
I know, Mrs. Queen-I-soak-my-grains-and-preach-it has a grain she's not soaking. Or sprouting. Or fermenting. But I'm forsaking this for good reason!
It doesn't bother my belly.
Which brings up a whole conundrum of questions and issues … Why doesn't it? What's different from this wheat versus others?
Here's a brief summary of the differences and benefits (sources are below):
- Less gluten. Wheat has been hybridized over the last few thousand of years. Wheat is not what it used to be. Part of the changes for mass-production in the 1900s, as it became the grain of choice, generated stronger yields but higher amounts of gluten.
- It is a tried and true ancient grain. You want to talk about "getting back to the way it used to be" this is it!
- High content of protein. Thousands of years ago breads were a large part of their diet, and it was good for them. Obviously there was a greater need for carbohydrates as their level of activity was incredibly higher than ours. But it should be noted that grains actually provided a great deal of necessary nutrition when prepared with these ancient grains.
- Good source of minerals and vitamins. (Vitamin E, anyone? Beta-carotene? A grain that feeds us NUTRITION other than just fiber?!) It even has a higher amount of fat!
I hope to draw the following picture: this is a complex carbohydrate, with a more nutritious and balanced content.
So how do we use it?
First of all, it is catching on, especially in the whole-foods/I-prefer-to-eat-what-my-ancestors-ate camps. Consequently, there are plenty of other bloggers and articles with recipes out there… you just have to look!
Second, you need to know that while technically you can substitute it for wheat flour in conventional recipes, it does seem to need a little less liquid. I have made it and not altered the directions at ALL and basically it just meant the cookies spread out a little more than what we would consider "normal" cookies. Some places recommend reducing the liquids 15-20%, but it's not absolutely necessary in my experience unless you are picky. ;-) (In my health-food-world, I'm just so happy to get a cookie at all, it doesn't bother me that the shape isn't perfect!)
And third, and most important to this post, you use it to make fluffy, tastes-like-conventional-white-flour waffles. And yes, you read that right.
4 eggs
1 tsp of vanilla extract
2 cups of milk
1/2 cup of melted butter
1/4 cup of sweetener of choice (I usually go with coconut sugar or rapadura)
2 cups of einkorn flour
1 tbl of baking powder
1/2 tsp of baking soda
1/2 tsp of salt
Waffle Iron
A good does of maple syrup :)
Mix all liquid ingredients + sweetener in one bowl. In a larger bowl, mix dry ingredients. Mix in liquid ingredients into the dry.
Do not overmix; it will be runny and that's normal.
For my waffle iron, I use about 1/4 cup of batter for one waffle. However, each waffle iron is different and you will need to use manufacturer instructions.
I make about 10-12 waffles with this recipe and my iron. We usually top if off with a dollop of butter and a hearty drizzle of maple syrup.
Bon Appetit!

5Qs With: Cara Ober
Where were you when you decided that you were going to start BmoreArt? How did it come about?
In 2007 I had just finished my MFA at MICA and I was exhibiting my paintings in DC, where there were lots of art blogs. I have always loved the act of writing and had written art reviews for a few local magazines, so it just made sense to start an art blog for Baltimore.
One goal I had was to create a space where Baltimore's artists could find out about exhibits and openings on any given weekend, because the art community is so diverse and varied. It's hard to keep up with it all and communities are divided into all in these smaller pockets. I would go and see great exhibits and projects, but so many people were missing out on them because they didn't know about them. I wanted to create an online source that actually made it easier for people to show up in person. BmoreArt still publishes a weekly 'Picks' post on Tuesdays that helps Baltimore's creative community plan their weekend. We don't publish every event or exhibit, but select the ones we consider the best.
The other thing I did, usually with writing and photography collaborators over the years, was to create an online archive of past exhibits and projects. Art is ephemeral; once the exhibit comes down it's almost as if it never happened—unless someone documents it. As mainstream press cut back more and more on their arts coverage, it was important for me to preserve the amazing efforts, collaborations, and events that happen in Baltimore. Also, to emphasize just how good the art is here and to voice constructive criticism when necessary.

Of course she will not be allowed to wear it out of the house in case she catches either a cold or sun-burn or both.

In case you missed it, my husband an I traveled to the southern part of Chile last year for a pretty awesome backpacking trip. There were highs... there were lows (get it?) but no matter what I kept my eye on the prize. The prize that was PENGUINS.
Disclaimer- I really had no particular attachment to penguins at the beginning of planning this trip. Actually, I had no attachment at all. I didn't want to kick a penguin, but I also had no intention of ever seeing one in real (aka not the zoo) life. But that all changed for the better. I mean, HELLO, can you look at this face?!?
After our trek in Torres del Paine National Park we took 2 back to back bus rides a bit further north to a town called Punta Arenas. Spoiler alert: the town is charming, but there isn't a whole heck open when you arrive at midnight. We stayed at an adorable bed and breakfast and it literally took me the lure of seeing penguins to get out bed the next morning after too many nights cold in a tent.
We made it to Solo Expediciones tour company with time to spare for our early morning departure to Magdalena Island. After another bus ride (Chilean theme) we got to the water to meet our chariot- also known as a boat small and somewhat scary enough to take us to a teeny island off the coast, with the sea swelling, fog settling, and okay... I fell asleep on the boat ride. I have no idea what happened, but you can ask Andrew. I just assume it was scary.
When we arrived on Magdalena Island, which is protected land so we were the only ones there, it was almost comical to see how many penguins there were... everywhere.
They are sleek and graceful through the water and you see them puttering around online like they all look like it is one drink past last call and everyone is looking for an Uber.
The other first impression? It reeked. Smelled of penguin poo- not that I had ever smelled penguin poo before, but it became apparent fairly quickly what it smells like.
The island looked like Mars with little penguin nests buried every so few feet around and suspicious penguins peering out at you. There were also penguins still molting, which looked absolutely adorable.
Then there were the show off penguins. Ones that would prance around squawking at whatever they pleased and generally being adorable.
I was most impressed with how much respect the penguins were given. Yes, humans were on the island, but there were very clearly demarcated areas that you could not cross and if you did the park guards would escort you off the island in a flash. I'm struggling with the same idea about if animal tourism is ethical for our upcoming trip to Thailand, and I feel very comfortable with our decision to visit Magdalena Island. The penguins were charming, dynamic, and were really amazing to see in person.
My new life goal is for Andrew and I to become these two love birds.
If you haven't guessed it, now I'm a big penguin fan.

Welcoming a baby into the world is both a wonderful and confusing time. Along with all the joy and love parenthood brings, there are many concerns you'll face once your little one makes his appearance.
Your newborn can develop a number of deficiencies and conditions—from eczema to jaundice—and you may not know what they are or how to deal with them. One of those "What's this here?" conditions is cradle cap.
But before you start to panic and rush your baby off to the emergency room, let the experts at Mustela put your mind at ease about this all-too-common skin condition. Along the way, we'll answer questions such as:
- What is cradle cap?
- Should you be worried about cradle cap?
- How common is cradle cap?
- Is cradle cap painful or contagious?
- What does cradle cap look like?
- How can I tell cradle cap apart from other conditions?
- What causes cradle cap?
- Are there any tests for cradle cap?
After we answer the most common cradle cap questions, we'll show you six ways to prevent and treat this common skin condition.
What Is Cradle Cap?
Cradle cap is the common name for seborrheic dermatitis. We know those probably aren't terms you come across every day, so allow us to elaborate. Here are the definitions you need to know:
- Seborrhea (seborrheic is the adjective form) — Overactivity of the sebaceous glands characterized by excessive secretion of sebum resulting in an oily coating, crusts, or scales on the skin.
- Sebaceous glands — Small glands in the skin that secrete a lubricating oily matter (sebum) into the hair follicles to lubricate the skin and hair.
- Dermatitis — A condition of the skin in which it becomes red, swollen, and sore. Usually resulting from direct irritation by an external agent or an allergic reaction.
Putting all that scientific jargon to work, it tells us that cradle cap is red (or yellow), irritated, oily skin that may form discolored, scaly, crusty patches. Still not 100% clear? In the simplest sense, it's basically infant dandruff. However, dandruff shampoo isn't the solution to the problem.
Strangely enough, cradle cap doesn't just appear on the head. This is the predominant location, yes, but it can also flare up on your baby's forehead, eyebrows, ears, diaper area, and other parts of his body.
Should You Be Worried About Cradle Cap?
The simple answer is NO. It's completely harmless, not contagious, and usually disappears by your baby's first birthday. One misconception about cradle cap is that it's an indication of poor hygiene. This is false.
As you'll see in the next few sections, cradle cap is the result of your baby's body adjusting to its new environment. It's also important to remember that this skin condition is very common. Doctors estimate that about half of all babies will exhibit some form of cradle cap during their first year of life.
That doesn't mean you should just disregard cradle cap completely. Your baby's body will usually work through the problem and stabilize itself on its own. In some rare instances, though, the scaly, irritated patches can get infected. This is most often due to excessive scratching from fingernails, clothing, or bedding. Again, infections are rare, but keep an eye on your baby's cradle cap nonetheless.
Is Cradle Cap Painful Or Contagious?
Many parents are concerned that their little one is experiencing pain from cradle cap or that they will spread the condition to other children. Well, we've got good news! Cradle cap is neither painful nor contagious.
As we mentioned above, common cases of cradle cap are not much different from dandruff. This means that most of the time, your baby isn't feeling any pain as a result of cradle cap. However, in severe cases, cradle cap may cause serious discomfort. If your little one's skin seems inflamed or infected, see a pediatrician right away.
While medical professionals aren't exactly sure what causes cradle cap (more on this later), it is definitely not contagious. There's no need to worry about your little one spreading cradle cap to siblings, playmates, or other children they come into contact with.
What Does Cradle Cap Look Like?
Cradle cap can vary in intensity depending on your baby's body. At the low end of the scale, it may manifest as slight redness and flaky skin (see below).

At the other end of the scale, the skin condition can result in extreme redness and a literal cap on the top of the head.

Symptoms are similar when they appear on other parts of the body.

How Can You Tell Cradle Cap Apart From Other Conditions?
In some cases, you might not be sure whether your baby has cradle cap or a different skin condition. This is especially true if the cradle cap is occurring somewhere besides your baby's head, where it most commonly appears. So how can cradle cap be identified?
Cradle cap is just one type of rash that your little one might develop, but it has a few distinguishing features. First, cradle cap often creates small patches of crusty skin that feel hard and rough to the touch. These patches may be raised from your baby's body in little clumps. And, of course, cradle cap is most likely to form on your baby's head, face, and neck.
Other skin conditions, like dry skin or eczema, are different from cradle cap is several ways. Both dry skin and eczema typically result in dry, flaky skin that will rub off easily. Cradle cap, on the other hand, is characterized by a buildup of dead skin cells that are stuck to your little one's skin.
In addition, dry skin and eczema are more likely to be found anywhere on your baby's body, as opposed to just their head, neck, and face. Finally, cradle cap will feel slightly oily, although rough at the same time, whereas dry skin and eczema will ordinarily feel tender and dry.
What Causes Cradle Cap?
According to the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), about 10 percent of baby boys and 9.5 percent of baby girls develop cradle cap. And although the condition is more or less common, little is definitively known about what exactly causes cradle cap. This is one reason it may be hard to treat or prevent.
Still, there are a number of factors that doctors believe could contribute to your little one developing the condition.
Maternal Hormones
One popular theory holds that the baby's sebaceous glands (the ones that produce skin oil) aren't working at full strength yet because of mommy's hormones (from gestation and nursing).
But don't feel bad. As we said, cradle cap is extremely common, and it's not your fault. Your baby's glands' overactivity, which happens as a result of your hormones, leads to an excess of oil. When that oil is present, dead skin cells that should be shed off naturally get caught in the oil and, as a result, form clumps.
Doctors believe that the glands sometimes work harder because of the influence of the mother's hormones that are still present in your baby's body even after they leave the womb.
That's just a theory, though. As logical as it sounds, don't let it change your nursing habits. Your baby's body will get used to the new environment (hormones included) during the first twelve months of his life.
Yeast Imbalance
A second theory holds that Malassezia, a specific strain of yeast, is the cause of cradle cap. When Malassezia colonizes on the surface of your baby's skin, redness and inflammation form as your baby's body fights off the yeast. This may lead to a buildup of sebum and dead skin cells—otherwise known as cradle cap.
Sometimes — though very rarely — generalized cradle cap may be linked to immunodeficiency. Immunodeficiency in your baby is the failure of the immune system to protect your little one's body from infection. This is due to either the absence or insufficiency of some component process or substance.
If this is the case, there will be other symptoms in addition to just cradle cap, and your doctor can diagnose and treat your child.
Fungal Infection
A third possibility is that cradle cap is the result of a fungal infection. While additional research is needed, some medical professionals believe cradle cap may be related to other fungal skin conditions, like athlete's foot.
Whatever the true cause of cradle cap may be, doctors know for sure that it is not caused by poor hygiene, an allergic reaction, or a bacterial infection.
We also know that it's a normal condition and absolutely nothing to worry about. One study performed in Australia found that as many as 10 percent of children under five years old have cradle cap at any given time! That's quite a bit, but the condition normally goes away in about a week with proper treatment.
Are There Any Tests For Cradle Cap?
Unfortunately, no. But if you visit a doctor, she will be able to diagnose cradle cap just by looking at your baby's skin. And that can be relieving during the high-stress days of early parenthood.
Remember, cradle cap is mostly harmless and usually clears up on its own. Often, it goes away by baby's first birthday, but in some children, it may not clear up until they are between two and four years old.
Still, there are a number of methods you can safely try to aid in the removal of cradle cap at home. Just keep in mind that when dealing with your baby's delicate skin, it is always important to be careful with the products you use, choosing those that are natural and safe.
What Are The Best Ways To Prevent & Treat Cradle Cap?
1) Bathe Your Baby No More Than Once Per Day
It may be tempting to think that bathing your baby more often will help get rid of cradle cap. However, the opposite is true! Bathing your baby too frequently can dry out their skin, which will cause their sebaceous glands to release excess oil — which may be the reason behind your baby's cradle cap to begin with!
Bathe your little one once per day at most. Just make sure to clean their diaper area thoroughly when changing dirty diapers. In-between baths, you can also keep your baby's skin clean with a gentle micellar water, like Mustela's No Rinse Cleansing Water.
2) Use The Right Baby Shampoo
To help reduce the chances of your baby developing cradle cap, wash your baby's hair and scalp with a gentle shampoo two or three times a week. We recommend Mustela's Foam Shampoo because it's formulated to gently cleanse and to rinse away the flakes associated with cradle cap.
3) Take A Vitamin B Supplement If You're Nursing
The B vitamin biotin is important for healthy skin. Normally, you get plenty of biotin from your diet. But sometimes, pregnant and nursing moms can develop a deficiency of this important nutrient. Because of the role this vitamin plays in skin maintenance, some believe taking a biotin supplement can help treat cradle cap when the mother has a deficiency.
Before you run out and buy all the biotin on the shelf, keep in mind there's no hard evidence that this works. At the very least, discuss with your doctor the possibility of taking the supplement before you add it to your daily routine.
4) Brush Your Baby's Scalp With A Soft Brush
For an added bit of prevention and treatment, we suggest brushing your baby's scalp with a soft brush while he's in the bath. Any baby hair brush will do a great job at gently removing the scaly skin. Just massage your baby's scalp with the brush, but be sure not to pick at the scales (this can cause irritation).
If you can't get ahold of a soft hairbrush, or if your baby doesn't like it, you can massage his scalp with a terry cloth towel while drying him off.
5) Apply Baby Oil Before Brushing
If brushing your baby's scalp with a soft brush doesn't seem to be working, try adding a drop or two of baby oil before you start brushing. Then, while you brush, you'll also be working the baby oil into your child's scalp for a boost of healing and prevention. Remember to be gentle so you don't further damage your baby's sensitive skin.
6) Use A Humidifier
Humidifiers are wonderful for your baby's skin. This is true whether or not they have cradle cap! It's best to place the humidifier in your baby's nursery, or whichever room they sleep in, and to leave it on while they rest.
Humid air keeps your little one's skin from drying out. This helps get rid of cradle cap because your baby's skin won't release as much sebum when it's already hydrated and well-moisturized. Since excess sebum is thought to be the cause of cradle cap, less sebum means less cradle cap!
7) Be Patient
Remember that cradle cap is the manifestation of an imbalance inside your baby's body. You can treat the symptoms (the flaky skin), but it may take a while for the condition to completely disappear. Be patient, and continue using products designed to prevent and treat cradle cap, like Mustela's Foam Shampoo, to defend against future outbreaks.
You can also try our brand-new Cradle Cap Cream, which works to prevent and eliminate cradle cap while soothing your little one's discomfort. Formulated with a patented avocado ingredient and plant-derived borage oil, this cream reduces the appearance of flakes and moisturizes your baby's scalp.
8) Consult A Physician
If your baby's cradle cap doesn't seem to be getting any better or if it looks infected, visit your doctor or pediatrician. If it's an extremely bad case of cradle cap, she may prescribe a topical steroid, like hydrocortisone, to help decrease the symptoms.
However, don't let cradle cap keep you up at night. By following a few simple steps, such as shampooing a few times per week and brushing your baby's scalp with a soft brush, your baby's cradle cap will soon disappear.
What To Avoid When Treating Cradle Cap
Always keep in mind that your baby's skin is incredibly sensitive, so when considering your options for how to get rid of cradle cap, it's important to avoid using harsh or potentially toxic chemicals.
It's never a good idea to apply undiluted apple cider vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, or essential oils to your baby's scalp to treat cradle cap. While these are often touted as home remedies for cradle cap (and a host of other conditions), they can be too strong for your baby's skin and can cause irritation. Instead, opt for baby-friendly products, like Mustela's Foam Shampoo.
Consult your pediatrician before using any and all products on your baby, since certain brands and ingredients can be toxic when absorbed through your little one's skin. Choose to invest in products that are made with natural ingredients and have been proven as safe for babies — ones free from potentially harsh and threatening chemicals.

It's Cookie Time
photos by Zeena Gregg Photography
Meet Cindy Mayers,
the Regional Manager for Girl Scout Cookies
We all love that time of year when we can purchase those delicious Girl Scout cookies. But did you know there is a Carmel Valley mom, named Cindy Mayers, who tirelessly volunteers behind the scenes to ensure that those coveted boxes of cookies are all properly dispensed and accounted for? As the product sales volunteer regional manager for the Canyon Trails region, Cindy oversees seven service units for not only the Girl Scout Cookie Program, but also the Fall Nut Sale.
It all began for Cindy when her daughter, Sydney, joined the Girl Scouts in the first grade (Sydney is now a college student at Cal State Monterey Bay). Cindy recalled, "I started by just being a supportive parent in the troop, helping with field trips or meetings. Eventually I became the troop's Cookie Manager."
When her second daughter, Shayla, joined her own Girl Scout troop in kindergarten (Shayla is now a sophomore at Canyon Crest Academy), Cindy volunteered to be the troop leader – and ten years later, she still is! That led to her branching out into other aspects of the Carmel Valley Girl Scouts; she's been an encampment coordinator, a Thinking Day coordinator, a troop organizer and of course the service unit cookie coordinator.
Cindy reminded us, "All the proceeds from the cookie sales stay in San Diego County to benefit all local Girl Scouts." The girls in her daughter's troop are currently benefitting by working hard for their Gold Awards, the highest achievement in girl scouting. Cindy added, "Mentoring the girls who have come in and out of my troop is my biggest accomplishment in volunteering with the Girl Scouts."
This stay-at-home mom has had ample opportunities to feel that sense of accomplishment. In addition to assisting the Girl Scouts, Cindy has also made a difference by helping at the local schools. She shared, "I've been active in the PTA at Carmel Creek and Solana Pacific schools. I was a member and President of the School Site Council, and was involved in PTA committees as the VP of Membership, the Vice President and the President."
Happy to volunteer when needed, especially for the Girl Scouts, Cindy encourages others to do the same. She exclaimed, "Whether you want to be a leader or just help with an event, the Girls Scouts can always use volunteers! Visit www.sdgirlscouts.org/volunteer for more information."
Name: Cindy Mayers
Community: Carmel Valley
Volunteer Affiliation: Girl Scouts of San Diego
Occupation: Stay-at-home mom
Family: Husband – Clay; Daughters – Sydney and Shayla
Group: Girl Scouts San Diego
Mission: Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.

Nationally, the silence is deafening. "Wanted: JMU antiwar activists" reads a headline in the campus newspaper at James Madison University in Virginia. In the piece, a sophomore vents frustration after finding few friends who would join her at the Sept. 15 anti-war rally in Washington, D.C. She concludes that many students "hid behind feeble excuses" to skip the demonstration. In New York, The Columbia Spectator reported the rally managed to attract only "a contingent of several dozen Columbia students."
"Sparse protest marks Iraq milestone," noted a headline in the University of Maryland's paper when a campus demonstration drew an estimated 200 students. "Where have all the anti-war protests gone?" asked a headline in The Stanford Daily following a nighttime vigil attended by "mostly graduate students and community members." The piece reported a "startlingly subdued level of anti-war activism" on the Palo Alto, California campus.
The most obvious distinction between campus protesters of the sixties and students today is the absence of a Draft. During Vietnam most students had friends who were called to serve, and many feared that they would be next. Today's students are not only spared such worries, their very presence in college confirms in most cases that they are not part of the socio-economic class that now does America's fighting. Yet, to believe that such a narrow rationale is all that separates these generations of students seems unfair to both.
In the Vietnam era, the mindset on campus was largely fixed on fear and loathing of The Establishment. The killings by National Guard troops at Kent State was vivid confirmation for an entire generation that student views were quite literally under attack. Contrast that with the dominant fear on campuses today that the enemy is likely to lurk within, creating tragedies such as those at Columbine and Virginia Tech.
As bleak as the Vietnam situation appeared four decades ago, students may find the current conditions even more desperate. They see a government that is unable to forge a consensus; worse, an electoral process that appears to have failed as an instrument of change. Yet, in the sixties and early seventies, "Power to the People" was a legitimate, if sometimes frightening, concept. Civil rights marches actually forced new laws; the news media actually brought down a president, and demonstrations actually contributed to ending a war.
Some of today's student leaders argue that technology is prompting a shift in the patterns of protest. In an editorial titled "The New Age of Activism," student editors at The Cornell Daily Sun recently defended themselves against media that "portray us as so lazy, self-interested and apathetic."
"Youth activism is far from dead," the editorial maintained. "Instead, it has transformed from sensationalized 1960s tear-gas rallies to online petitions and Internet discussion boards. Although this new wave of activism may be construed as passive, it is often highly effective in mobilizing individuals across geographic and cultural lines."
But that New Age argument seems to beg an age-old question: If an Internet message falls in the forest does it make any sound? Many student protesters who faced tear gas in the sixties were legitimate heroes of their time, and to suggest that such valor can come via the Internet may be a dubious proposition at best.
Perhaps it is unrealistic to expect a student population to be much more than a reflection of its time, its society, and its elders. The silence on campus during this critical period may well reflect yet another failure by educators, politicians and parents to teach the compelling lessons of our past.
