Thanks guys. I love the smell of powder, so I do want to use that if it helps. I couldn't stop sniffing the bottle last night - it just smells so good!!
I 've had a look at the botty butter etc - I've figured out where I can get it from now, so I'll probably get some of that. I've also been reading up, and apparently paw-paw cream is great for nappy rash/barrier cream too. I've seen that in a pharmacy, so I'll have a look at that I think.

You are so right about babies not getting dirty Tootie. Shane laughs at babies being washed every day - cause they dont need it, but I guess its good for water familiarisation and routine. I'm thinking sorbolene would work a bit like cold cream for stage make-up?? Rub it on before bathing quite thick, and then wash it off with water? It seems like it would be a very gentle way to clean bubbies without the soap. I'm not sure - I'll see when spud arrives..... If that ever bloody happens!! ](*,)
