YES, YES, YES!! I descibe it as a "wet dog" smell. Have been to the Dr.’s who suggested something called "ionil T". Has helped somewhat but still not to my satisfaction. Had a thickish cradle-cap when born, which would reappear as soon as I removed it. Number four girl has this cradle-cap too, so I am expecting the same with her when she gets a bit older. Those two are my CAH kids and the others without have no scalp problems.Liz
