Bleeding nappy rash My lb is nearly 6 months old and had never had nappy rash until last night when it just came on very…

If you're breast feeding you can try to put a little breast milk on it. I read that helps

He's ff :/

This is an old old thing that My grandma and great grandma always say, kinda weird but it has worked for me.

Egg whites! Brush it on let him fully dry before putting another nappy.

Worked in a day for my LO. I did it every other diaper change

Aquaphor works like magic

Dr smith cream!

Yes agree with @maytwinktoes

Dr smiths is the best!

Thanks for the suggestions, unfortunately I'd have to order them from Amazon (uk) so they wouldn't come before the rash would've gone :( might have to buy some of the aquaphor (there's only 2 of the dr smiths) for next time though!

The absolute best thing is to leave baby with his diaper off for a while to air it out.

Just put towels you don't mind getting dirty underneath.

I use a&d and nakey floor time w towels. I haven't had to do nakey time w her but I did for her brothers

I can use whatever ointment but use, either caldasene powder which is cornstarch with zinc from Walmart or drugstores and it will clear it in like 2-3 days Bc it keeps the area dry. Ointments work but ur will take longer to heal if you are not keeping the area super dry and that dies the job. Don't use regular powder it irritates it more. Caldasene with butt paste works wonders. I used aquaphor but it didn't work for diaper rash but info use it for my daughters dry skin.

Mix together regular desitin, aquaphor, and mylanta. At the hospital we call it happ heiney

What diapers and wipes do you use? Most have chemicals in them. Sounds like a chemical burn/rash to me.

Try water wipes if you can get them they are my favorite. And get chemical free diapers or its just gonna keep repeating

Thanks ladies for the advice - I didn't even have a chance to get anything as it went right down 2 days later! I kept him nappy free as much as I could, and changed every hour or so cleaning with cotton balls and water.

We'd been using cloth nappies for the past 2 and a half weeks, but are currently using pampers (as we were before) since the rash as I'd be going through around 10+ nappies a day for changing him so frequently.

I have no idea how it came on so quickly and angrily, to just go away so quickly? It's still just little bits of red left but I imagine they'll go down in a day or two so I can go back to the cloth nappies :)

A&d or for my son who always had a yeast type rash a prescription of nyastatin will do the trick overnight. My dd just had a bad broken open spot. Used nyastatin and put a&d over it. This morning it's almost totally gone and not red.

My son had a really bad rash. No creams were working (tried 5 different types) and bare bum wasnt working then my mom told me what my gramma used to do. She would wash babies bum with baking soda in water every diaper change. I used a squeeze bottle with 8 oz water and 1 tsp baking soda. I would splash it on his rash every diaper change and in 2 days it went from bright bright red to pale pink. Works wonders. My mom also said my gramma would use corn starch for bum powder (never tried it though as we have easily accessible baby powder) my grampa would used it on razor burn as well.

Our daughter got a bad one a while ago and Doctor recommended warm baking soda and water soaks every few hours and lots of naked tummy time and beaudreauxs butt paste. It was gone in a day or two.
