poor little mite I'd definitely wait until tomorrow morning unless he's really looking ill now, as BAL said, er on a sat night is no fun

As for the creams, I've been told not to use hydrozole once the skin is broken? I use desitin (sp?) cream for nappy rash as its got a much higher zinc content. c
would castor oil help? could you just dip him in a sink of warm water (easier than bath) every time he poos? it's abit annoying but then Theres no wiping needed and doesn't hurt so much. I did this for dd when she had gastro mixed with severe thrush, seemed to help her not dread the nappy changes so much.

fingers crossed he gets some relief soon. and I'd definitely be complaining about the daycare!!! that's super slack!!
