    We use Daktozin on DD1 as well Beata. She gets hideous nappy rash. The pharmacist told me to use it and apply it twice a day for 2 weeks after the rash has cleared. We always would use it for a few days and then go back to normal cream as soon as she cleared up, but since doing this, she has been much better.

    Can he stay home with a bare bum?
    I'd let the air dry out all that moisture and then give your DS a soothing oatmeal bath and do the nappy routine for night time (powder,cream etc etc)

    If my bum was red raw, I would want nothing on it at all, but fresh air.

    Thanks for your great suggestions ladies. The doc told me to use the Daktozin cream and to do heaps of nappy free time which we do anyway. The reddness is getting better, at least he's letting me near his bum again. She said is was probably from an acidic poo which would make sense, as we always change his nappy a gazillion times a day, it never gets a chance to get really wet. I hope the cream will improve the reddness quickly.
