if u are going to use powder avoid talc, which has caused all sorts of probs (esp for girls) - google it for more info. YOu can get cornflour based pwders that are better. My MCHN recommended actual cornflour (we needed to use powder on Noah;s neck as he kept getting a fungal infection in all the rolls from moisture). Between that and olive oil on his change table I am sure to some people it looked like i was going to baste and eat him LOL! then again he is SO delicious maybe I should!!!!
