sensitive skin

With Nappy Off time how long do I leave it off and how can I get away with her not peeing on the floor.

She likes having her nappy off I'll give her more time without it tomorrow.

I'll try the cream she's been like this since newborn think she inherited her father's skin.

DD has very dry skin all over. We are currently lathering her twice daily in aqueous cream, using a tiny amount of cetaphil to clean her (rather than soap) and using softway wipes (which seem to affect her less than any supermarket brand that I've tried). It's still dry as anything though! If you do happen across any magical solution, I'm all ears ..

Ditto ditching the wipes!

Get aqueos cream use it in the bath as well if you want to wash her with anything. I never used anything bar water on my kids skin until they actually start getting dirty.

I've only ever bathed her with water we use a tummy tub and she regularly tries to drink the stuff so no soap of any kind for her.

I'll ditch the wipes and grab some more cloth ones that's all I used when she was little and seem to do the trick.
I was using cotton wool and water for wees and saving wipes/cloths for #2s.

She's not quite crawling yet but she does move and almost always pees when she's on her front.

When you give your babies nappy off time what do you have on their top half?

I often put pants but no nappies on when DD needs nappy free time. That way the poos get caught in the pants and if they are track pants or similar, they often soak up most of the wees before it hits the floor too.

We use wet cloths for wipes here too. No way can we use anything else. I usually manage to find somewhere to wet them when out too or if I know I won't, then I pack some wet ones into a little plastic bag before I go.

I use beeswax/honey based products or similar and they seem to do the trick. What sorts of creams work well for your DH?

Hehe, thought you might say that

If he has similar skin though, you could always insist that he has to spot test anything new you want to put on DD. DD gets her grotty skin from me, so I tend to try things out on myself first to weed out the really bad choices.

hehe nappy off time we have a waterproof mat under E with a flat nappy on it and just change that nappy when she wees - usually straight after i take her old nappy away hehe grrr!
We use plain wipes that they used in the neonatal unit, you can get them brand new off trade me, called patient wipes, you just put them in water. we tried using baby wipes but they made her nappy rash all the time so just use plain water n these wipe things (plain cloth sort of things) are real good and quite cheap.
Interesting alot of ppl saying on here they just bathe in plain water, going to start using less suds now for E as well, apart from when done a mega poo like tonite hehe. seems bathing her everyday with suds the using a moisturiser has made her skin more dry too, weird huh?
When E's creases get abit red i just use plain Vit E cream.
