Moms, my son in 9 months old and has never had a diaper rash until now. It’s looking worse each day and Desitin, A+D, and Vaseline is doing NOTHING!
Any tips, recommendations on how to make him more comfortable? He’ll scratch and cry each diaper change!
Cornstarch.. or baby powder. I never use any ointments on diaper rash. You want to dry it out.
I agree!! If thay doesnt help the e.r comes up with this concoction a&d desitin and some other things etc.. And it works miracles or even a tea bag ive used and it works GREAT!
Oatmeal baths
No diaper
No wipes use wash cloth soap and water
And either coconut oil or yellow Shea butter after each incident.
Wash with warm water only after poops and pat dry. & I use dr.smith only.
Put some baby powder on the affected areas, try to keep his area dry, more moisture helps bacteria build up creating a rash, when you wipe him make sure his area is dry before you put baby powder or a diaper on, you can even try a few days of just not putting anything on it and letting it dry out @gabby_235
And I use an ointment at night. Called Healing Elements Balm. It's not sold in stores. You have to order it from a Lemongrass Spa consultant. But it's worked for almost every single diaper rash we have ever encountered. All natural, vegan, and smells like lavender vanilla. An 8oz tub is like 22 bucks. But it'll last your forever!
