Aquafor works for my baby

Personally, I love Boudreaux’s Butt Paste… but what wipes do you use? Maybe they’re causing the constant rash?

Boudreauxs butt paste

Desitin is my favorite

Corn starch if your breastfeeding put alittle breast milk on it

Destin is what worked for us

This, aquaphor or Calmoseptine are all we use.

Aquafor is amazing for everything! Dry skin, diaper rash, eczema

Check with Dr to make sure it’s not a sensitivity to diaper brand

Cornstarch, try keeping the diaper off as much as possible for air

This stuff is literally the best! And it clears up a rash in a matter of hours!

Plain cornstarch. When my mom had dementia we mixed a paste of and d ointment and preparation h
Stir it in a jar of equal amounts
Put it on any red spot and it goes away. You might need to change the brand of diapers.

I always used Dr. Smith’s. If it is constant, it might have turned into an infection and need a prescription.

Boudreaux’s Butt Paste

Calmoseptine has always worked great for our babes

Aquaphor best in the world

Baking soda baths cool/ warm water

I found the best for a rash was let them go diaper less, or corn starch. Dry it out.

Yeast infections also look like diaper rash

Cornstarch is the best I’ve found

Destin but also corn scratch is what I typically use

Calmoseptine!! That was the ONLY thing that cleared up my daughter’s diaper rash, and it’s what we use in the hospital for people with bed sores/pressure ulcers.

Allison Strickland what is that stuff you use?

Pinxav from Amazon and plain cornstarch!

Bag Balm is the best, use with every diaper change and baby won’t get another rash

Put flour in the oven and bake it til it’s dark brown. Once it cools, pour in a ziploc bag and sprinkle in their diaper every change.

A&D ointment it’s just smells like it gets the job done too…

Destin really works well

Need to air it out, corn flour help too. It could also be the nappies or wipes you using why he got a rash!

I ended up buying this after trying sudocream, desiten and a few others. Not sure where you’re located but where I live most pharmacies carry it you just have to ask the pharmacist for it.

Cornstarch!! It will be your best friend. And it truly truly does help. No diaper cream cured my youngest when she got diaper rashes…and she got them bad. We couldn’t keep going to the doc for him to prescribe an ointment. So went with cornstarch. Rash free ever since.

Pinxav. Sold on amazon swear by this heals everything, has been around forever my grandma use to use it on us and says the same thing.

Beadraux butt paste. Doesn’t burn like desitin

a&d and baby powder was the only combination that helped my daughter

Ok so this is gonna sound wirts .
Boob milk … I swear by it . If you breast feed just squirt a little in the palm of your hand and slather it on . Between my 4 kids I think I’ve had to deal with a rash maybe 6 times total and it always went away same day if not next. And let it dry out

But I have heard great things about desiten

Bag balm and corn starch

Calmoseptine! Hands down is the best. My grandma uses it because she has an colostomy. She used it on my daughter and she was healed in under 24 hours. I never used anything else since. A little bit goes a long way too

I swear by cornstarch

Maybe some yeast medicine, buy at the dollar store,it says for athletes foot cream,kills yeast and can use it below

Ask the pediatrician for their diaper paste recipe!

Your baby may be allergic to the Pampers that you’re using my youngest was allergic to Huggies would get rashes all the time and I had to switch

Breast milk, if you produce it! There’s a whole science behind how your breast milk knows what the baby needs…
Otherwise, butt paste was always my go to!

Boogie bottoms. Ditch the creams they usually just hold in moisture. The nicu uses the spray and since we switched we haven’t had an issue and when we start to we spray and that’s that. Gone.

This has always worked us very well

Corona cream. You can find it at tractor supply or a co op. Lol sounds crazy but it works amazing!

Only use a light layer. I was using to much when i first started using it and it seemed to make it worse, but then my mum told me to use only a tiny bit.

Is it a fungal rash?

Aquaphor with cornstarch mixed in to make a paste like consistency worked for my youngest like magic

Cornflour to help draw out the moisture xo

May be the diapers. Have you tried a different kind ?? I used Vaseline or plain cornstarch or Neosporin or square. Sometimes the wipes you may be using can cause a rash. I always used plain o’l warm water and a wash cloth and keep their little behind as dry as possible. Good Luck !!!

Olive oil. Works like a charm on stubborn rashes

Preparation H :bangbang: you may laugh but it works better than any diaper rash medicine. I promise you​:bangbang::bangbang::bangbang::bangbang:

Aquaphor baby is amazing. Sometimes I used it for cuts instead of neosporin and the next day they completely sealed and better

Alternating between corn startch and coconut oil

The three things I recommend is corn starch, Desitin Maximum strength diaper cream or Butt Paste. If the rash doesn’t clear up within 1 week after doing all of these things, take her to the doctor. Same thing happened with my daughter because nothing I did was working so I took her into the doctor after a week of this and it ended up being a fungal rash. They had to prescribe a special medication for it. At first after a few days if just using diaper cream, I thought it was getting better. Then it came back til force and worse. That’s when I knew. Make sure you’re patting down the area really well around the creases where her diaper lays after her baths. It’s usually where it starts forming. I hope it gets better for her soon! :pray:

Try switching diapers and only using water wipes and make sure to let the area completely dry before diapering. Going without a diaper for a couple hours (maybe while napping) will help healing too.

Weleda , calendula diaper rash cream, I bought on iherb, worked immediately, after one apply my son stopped crying on his next butt wash. Sudocream, desitin, mustela rash cream didn’t work on us. :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Anti monkey butt diaper rash cream

Is it a yeast infection? I had that problem when my daughter had a bad yeast infection

Pinxav does wonders for us

Aquaphor mixed with a little mylanta! Will clear it greatly by the next diaper change! Just mix a little bit of the mylanta to the aquaphor into a paste and apply like normal. I always have a little container premixed ready to go!

Try giving your little one (ONLY IF OLD ENOUGH!!) more water throughout the day - just a sip or two at a time … but often … It sounds like your baby’s wee (and poo) has a lot of acid in it and they need to drink more water to neutralize or dilute the strength of the acid … Also be sure to wash your baby’s bottom thoroughly - you need to get every bit of wee off their skin as the longer it’s in contact the worse the rash will become …

I used Medicine Mama’s, Sweet Bee Magic, All In One Healing Skin Cream - it worked like a charm too!! Good luck I know it can be frustrating!!

Vaseline an corn starch my mother inlaw swore by it an that’s all I used
