Coconut milk for bathing
My baby is 5months 20days old..i used to apply coconut milk for my baby right from the start before bathing..but from the last week onwards when i apply coconut milk for baby after bath he is having red rashes throughout body and after applying moisturiser it vanishes.. am mixing coconut milk and ragi as his solids..and i noticed after feeding he is having red rashes in chins also since the porridge will be spread around mouth after feeding..so does it mean that he will be having allergy inside also..should i avoid giving cocnut milk in porridge also..he is passing motion once or twice a day..he is not having any difficulty while eating..will cocnut milk intake will also be a problem?

As such coconut milk does not cause allergy after skin application but if on adding to solids to feeding if these rashes are visible you must avoid adding coconut milk for feeding
It will be more clear if you send pictures of these rashes
