Hi ladies!
I am in need of some advice about diaper rash.
L started getting a diaper rash about a week ago(we had tried a new wipe), bright red on the outside and a big circle on her bum. Two days ago it looked to be clearing up(we finally had an aha moment and thought it might be the new wipes so we stopped using them)but this morning it was back red and ugly and looks to almost be spreading. We have been diligent about changing her diaper and letting her air out. We have tried using Boudreaxs butt paste and are now using aquifer. It hasn't seemed to bother her until tonight when she cringed when I went to wipe her.
Any advice on how to proceed? This is the first diaper rash she has had.
Re: Diaper Rash
try to keep her diaper off as much as possible.
Use plain cornstarch
call the pedi and get a rx for Nyastin.
Thanks for all of the ideas!
She just finished up a course of augmenten (sp?) right around the time the rash started and she is teething up a storm but I haven't noticed any white bumps. I will definitely keep my eye on it and definitely give the pedi a call in the morning.
Also she's getting a lot of naked bum time :-) and she loves it. Its all just totally sucky because she's such a happy kid and she's not fussy about it but it has to be painful.
Again thank you so much!!!
