My DD gets nappy rash very easily and then it takes ages to go away. So now I always use Huggies (hate that they are so expensive though) as they draw the wet away, I change her frequently and I always put sudocrem on - regardless of if her bum looks like it needs it or not. This is the only way I have found to control me DD's nappy rashes!
try cloth or one of those non-toxic, biodegradable brands, like moltex. I have a friend with the same issue - which disappeared completely when she switched. also ditch the chemical wipes etc. some kids really are sensitive to that.
Hope she gets some relief soon.
I would try mcns as well. DS used to get big rashes when we used sposies. He grew out of it and we do use them overnight now but for a while he would really react.
Yes, try MCN's with frequent changes, lots of nappy free time, and also be very careful about what wipes you use. When I used wipes on DD1 she would ALWAYS get a rash, when I changed to just plain water she healed much quicker. Wipes tend to take away the skins natural oil barrier and give the rash a head start.
