Dolly's stinky feet are about to kill me. The kid is not even 2 yet. How on earth does a baby get such stinky feet? FTR her sister's don't smell like this, they just smell like... Well, feet. ;)

Any ideas for a remedy?

DD had this, and had recurrent, horrible athlete's foot. I tried every natural home remedy possible. Changed socks often, vinegar rinses for feet, shoes and socks, tea tree oil, otc antifungals, no socks/footy pajamas at night, etc etc etc.

Finally (months and months and several truly awful cases of athlete's foot later) got a prescription antifungal cream and that finally cured it. It took about 6 weeks of twice daily application to really knock it out for good. Her feet smell better and she hasn't had athlete's foot since.

If the feet are just stinky, use lots of white vinegar on socks, shoes, and feet. If it's more problematic, visit your doc for an rx.
