I Feel Bad

Joseph has really bad diaper rash, it like
appeared out of nowhere last night , he
had a diarrhea diaper yesterday and right
after is when the rash appeared. Its soo
red and it hurts him to touch it at all.
Today though when I was tryin to wipe him
a couple lil spots he skin broke only
teeny spots, but ugh any site says diaper
rash is no big deal and to wait 72 hrs or
a week even . Right now hes diaperless to
let him air out. Hes been sooo cranky.
Ive been using desitin but hes stil
uncomfy. I have a &d ointment and
vaseline for babies at the huose dunno if
those would help more then desitin. I
dont know if we sell like triple paste or
whatnot here I got that in fla its like 12
bucks and medicated it works unless its
really bad like wha the had with rotavirus
I ended up getting nystatin cream but
thats after the rash didnt go away after a
week and he was 8 mths old. It looks like
anormal rash right nwo besides the tiny
lil spots where his skin got rubbed. It
doesnt look like the yeast rashes ive seen
pics of online so hmm I hope it goes away
soon

Diaper rash is common following/during
diarrhea.
Letting him air out is a great idea.
We don't have desitin or stuff like that
here but we do have "zinc cream" marketed
in the uk as "sudacrem".
Just use a gentle baby wash on him and
keep him clean/dry and he'll be fine in no
time.

ya hes walkin around naked, was about to
put a diaper on him then he peed on the
floor lol. Some people say a and d works
really well so I gotta go search my room
for it. Or it might be in a diaper bag
and try it on his butt, I dont think ive
ever used that on a diaper rash hes had.
We got it when he got circumsized a couple
weeks ago. So eh I wonder if that works
good>?

can't say - I know a lot of girls on here
do use them though.

ya im sure the stuff you got there they
have on the german economy though. But I
dont know what a drugstore is called in
german lmao. I think a & d doesnt
contain the zinc. Im not sure its not soo
creamy and its a cear/yellow color not
white paste. It helps prevent and treat
rashes and protect skin you can use it
for cuts and burns to help sooth them as
well. So eh I guess its good for a few
things lol

I remembered I have a pack of chamomile
stuff they gave us when he got circum
sized to bath in to help his pee pee . I
wonder if that will help his butt if I
give him a bath with that in the water.

Kaylee had an awful diaper rash a
few weeks after she was born because of
the formula she was on & the doc told
us to get .Lotrimin (its an antifungal
cream) & .Hydrocotrisone cream (both
you can find at walmart or just about any
store I think). We were suppose to put a
light layer of the lotrimin on & the
get a little dab of the hydrocortisole (it
can burn the baby if you use too much)
& rub it into the lotrimin. It worked
awesome for us, don't know if you have
those things over there though.

For .Tre the desitin and those other
ointments worked for preventing diaper
rash....But if he already had a rash they
only made it worse because the ointment
was very thick and kept the area
moist....So I used a powder called
caldisene (sp?) the powder was very good
for drying it out and healing it. But
the most important thing that was already
said was let air get to it and keep the
area dry.....Meaning you will have alot of
oops to clean up.

A&d works for us. He's had a couple
of instances of irritated bum (from trying
different brands of diapers!!!) a&d
cleared it right up w/in a day or so.
Edited bcuz I forgot to add that you need
to pat the bum dry with a cloth before
putting on the a&d! That stuff is
awesome! If it works to keep tattoos
from getting infected diaper rash doesn't
stand a chance!

diaper rash cream might help too

Some of the stuff I havent heard of like
powder on it or mixing maalox, and the
baking soda ill have to try it. Some lady
told me that u can use alil bit of that
dreft washing powder for baby clothes in
the bath and it helps, she said her
pediatrician told her it and she tried it.
But eh I have never heard of it. Dont
know if any of you have.It doesnt seem to
bother him as much with the a&d
ointment on it , hopefully its still not
really red, I gave hima bath earlier. I
always just buy the creams but ive never
had a problem usualy desitin works right
away but eh hopefully one of those things
work. Otherwise it might be yeast but
right now it doesnt look like that. I
dont see why they dont just sell nystatin
over the counter lol that stuff works
really good.

that can cause the child to inhale the
powder and infect the respitory system.
I would tell your friend to stop...

I think it depends on the age of the kid,
I never liked using powder on them when
they are like newborn and really little
but not so much a bother when they are
older like josephs age. Depends how ya
put it on too. I wouldnt try and squirt
the powder right out onto their bottom or
it wil end up in there face ya know.I got
so much baby powder now lol and I dont
really use the stuff.

Nooooooooooooo
when you squirt it is when you get dust.
If you use powder either srpinkle a tiny
bit in your hand (away from baby) and then
rub it on with your hand or put some
powder in a sock and gently pat it on
baby's butt.
Believe it or not it really helps stop the
dust

It reduces the dust...That you can
*see*!!!
We alllll know about the thiny things
called microparticles. They cannot be
seen with the human eye. Similar to some
pollens.
Reguardless, it gets in their lungs.
I mean, do what ya do. I used it at one
time.
But when .Oni's Dr. Saw it, he liked to
have a heart attack!!
A&d or vaseline has the *same*, if not
*better*, effect of powder.
Edited to add: i'm from the .South.
Believe me, I was raised knowing that to
reduce rash, use cornstarch. I was alll
about the powder!! Until I learned how
badly it could affect your baba.
It could cause pneumonia or respitory
failure if inhaled. Period.
There's no going back once they have
pneumonia.
