    I haven't used the cammomile myself, but it is something a midwife mentioned to me. I think you pour a bit of the cooled tea into the nappy, so they kind of soak in it. The other thing is to actually put a teabag in the bath with your baby .

    Thank you for the replies.

    I cannot believe I didn't think of Calendula Cream - I used to make my own!
    the cloth nappy worked pretty well after all and he woke up in the best mood ever! He was nappyless all day today and it's healing beautifully. He has nappy off time nearly every morning, but a good 9 hours of it really helped. the very pleasant side effect is that he has being peeing in his potty all day as well!! Not bad for a 2 yrd old methinks! I had no plan to even begin tt until it started getting warmer but he is doing it all on his own.
    I will continue to use a little cream as a barrier for the next couple of days as well.

    Thanks again!
