Jesika- sounds a lot like us. I didn't notice any aversion to dairy when she was fully bf but am thinking it might be a food allergy. Guess it's a case of taking things out of her diet and seeing if it makes a difference.

DS gets a really bad rash from strawberries. Ecostore balm and curash worked really well to clear it up.

One of my friends said that those teething necklaces seem to help with nappy rash too. Have you got one of those? |
Good point, I'm sure Cooper's has never been as bad since we've used one.

We have a necklace here and while it seems to help with the teeth, it hasn't made a difference to her rash.
I'm eliminating any acid forming foods from her diet and will see if that makes a difference.
Thanks for all your replies

what nappies do you use? cause that can make a difference too. i know a few people on here have had kids with allergies to certain nappy fabrics and my girl reacts badly to a brand of nappies as well.

Edmunds Cornflour...... cheap, natural, effective. and second the baking soda in bath water, and in the water when wiping/dabbing bum. Neutralises the acid (or is it alkaline... cant remember)
We also use Gaia nappy Powder- which is just cornflour with natural lavender. (not strong). just on the $ side.
but cleared L's nappy rash quick smart.
good luck-
poor wee baby possum  I feel so sorry for them when theyre so sore.

Eek we just got a pile of itti's! Having said that, she had nappy rash before we started using them (a combination of homemade MCN's and snazzipants which we have been using for months) so I don't think they were the trigger.
I've been using the vasoline on top of everything else (ecostore nappy balm and curash) and it looks like things are starting to clear.

We've had a couple of bouts of nappy rash, and I swear by bepanthen, paw paw ointment, and corn flour.
Also, a paed friend has mentioned you can get 'triple cream' for really severe nappy rash - can't remember exactly what goes in to it, but you need a dispensing pharmacist to mix it up for you.
Good luck x
