I'd be pretty hesitant about using vaseline anywhere on a baby, let along in the vagina area. It's full of yucky petro chemicals! I'd go to the doctor and get a proper cream for it.
that crossed my mind too, we sought out organic alternatives for nappy rash creams for example, i'd prolly use one of those instead. e.g Simmons paw paw salve (not Lucas). But that would be my personal choice.

Kimmy, i would have freaked out if given that sort of news by a medical person too. You want your bub to be ok, any other news, it's like - la lalalalalalalalal, this can't be happening. When my bub was tiny, if i got any news, or worries about my bub, i had no-one to talk it over with, so having this forum, was my lifeline.
