Amy has had nappy rash a few times but only once very badly when the plunket nurse said to get daktozin (sp?? sorry the tube is in Sophie's room and i have just put her down for a sleep ). It is very thick - don't try to rub it in, just dab it on the nasty areas and it has anti-fungal properties. Good for when it get nasty sore looking.
Usualy we just use Lucas' pawpaw and Sudocream if it is a bit worse.
Hope your poor poppet's bum gets better soon - at least the weather is good so she can have lots of nappy off time.
Sudocream and lots of nude times works well for us. Daniel has never had bad rash - more that it starts getting red, so we start the sudocream straight away
i use curash powder during the day (more compatible with mcn's), but slather on the bepanthen at night with the disposables. as Flissty said, lots of nappy-off time is good too.
Alani only got nappy rash after eating too many grapes. We use Weleda nappy changing cream. It works wonders. Only after using it once you can see a big improvement.
When it gets really bad ( which is when Aoife is sick) I do a layer of talc ( to dry it) sudocream (for the zinc) and a layer of vaseline ( to stop the wees from stinging it) and this works a treat everytime.
Paw Paw is brilliant for bums and any other rash for that matter.
Has anyone tried the new Pawpaw balm thats petrochemical free?? Does it work as well???
I used to love Lucas Pawpaw till I found that out.... I used it as lipbalm and it prevented my coldsores!!
