A mum whose daughter was born with Down’s syndrome and had emergency surgery at just one day old due to a blocked bowel is over the moon after finding a miracle cream to ease her baby’s painful eczema.
Amie Yates, 33, was delighted when she fell pregnant with her third child, but when baby Gweni was born in May 2022 and diagnosed with duodenal atresia, which causes a blockage in the bowel, the family were terrified. Rushed for emergency surgery at one day old, Gweni recovered quickly and returned home just three weeks later.
But in November 2022, at just six months old, she developed painful eczema on her face and torso that only worsened during the cold winter months. At a loss for how to ease her baby’s discomfort, Amie reached out to friends at a local Down’s syndrome support group she had found on Facebook and was advised to try MooGoo Soothing Baby Moisturiser cream. Costing £13.50, the cream eased Gweni’s discomfort and now the nine-month-old is back to perfect health.
