Hmm, I used Balmex and desetin and I don't recall which worked better. But it also helps to use a warm wash cloth to wipe him up rather than the wipe-ups, because those have alcohol in them and only irritate it more. I also let .adriana run around for awhile to air dry (and hope she didn't mess on my floor!)

finn's never had a diaper rash but he does get raw spots in between his rolls (my brother refers to this as "chub rub"), we use a&d and it works wonders.

i've also heard that letting them go around without a diaper on is helpful.

i hope you find something that works and that it clears up soon!

Do you guys get sudocrem in the states? If so then i've heard very goof things about it, my neice got such bad nanppy rash and after two days of applying sudocrem it was gone

Hmm, I've never heard of sudocreme. I did a quick google on it, and the first few sites that came up were all new zealand and such.

He looked a little better this morning - I'd just been powdering him really well the last few changes. I let him roll around on the bed without a diaper for a little while last night, so that might have done the trick

I'll try the washcloth next and might go for some a d if it doesn't clear up. My mom said she used something that worked great on me and my brother when we were babies... unfortunately, she can't remember what it is. lol.

Thanks for the suggestions!

(and lol @ 'chub rub'!)

my neighbors daughter had a realyl bad daiper rash when she wasfirst born and when it didnt go away she went to the doctor and it turned out to be a yeast infection and they gave her nisantin or something like that i cant spell it. just saying if it continues take him to the doc to be sure it just a rash. hope he gets better soon

We used some stuff called butt paste on my stepdaughter. It worked really well for her. We got it at wal-mart.

**Edited due to duplicate post**

a&d works wondersssss!!! seriously! That's all we've ever used on .oni!!

If it spreads, it could be .thrush. call the Dr. if it does spread and/or doesn't get better within a couple of days.

Also you can put baking soda in the tub with him.

Sarah

arent yeast infections and thrush the same thing?

sudocreme is the best thing ever invented beats all the others by millions! you can get it at walmart but its pricier.

Dani, yea they're practically the same.

Oni was put on .nystatin for her thrush! It was in her mouth/throat though.

Sarah

my son too had trush in his mouth and used the same thing....he got it from his antibiotics which was curing his pneumonia...funny how they never mentioned that as a side effect!

We have .Boudreaux's .Butt .Paste here. That's what the hospitals recommend before you leave. Ava only had one when she had a little yeast infection from antibiotics, so I can't tell you how good it works.

Lotrimin mixed with a pea sized amount of cortisone cream works great.. I won't use anything else on .Kaylee.
