    Hi ladies, hope you don't mind me popping in here. I have a list of questions and I know you're the people to ask.

    Poor little Ashlyn has had a tummy ache and now has come up in a nappy rash. Today I've been washing her bottom with chamomile tea and soft wipes and giving her as much nappy free time as possible. But by this arvo it was still worse. Any advice as to what else I can do to help? Also, if I do use nappy rash cream and liners on the nappies, do you wash the liners with the nappies or seperately?

    TIA

    Um Gigi :blush: we didn't take that many photos of Pip! But we will find the camera and upload them soon.

    Man-oh-man. The blue cammo got it! The biggest poop I've ever seen. And while DH held Pip nekkid after we removed his nappy in the loo, I made a big production of dunking the nappy in the flushing water about 5 or 6 times, during which DH got peed on He's going to install my LS tomorrow!!!

    Welcome back FJ and IJ! (how cute!) Is he a little booby-man? Photos please, photos!

    Captain - which bum rash cream do you use on Ashlyn (gorgeous name!)? If it's a heavy zinc-based cream or petroleum-based cream (bepanthan) then it'll clog up your gorgeous cloth and you don't want that. A water-based lotion is great for cloth. If you're using liners, that's different. You can try raw silk liners (twinkle lily have some) as silk has healing properties, else maybe disposables for a little while.

    Good luck!

    Thanks Kazbah, might look at some of the silk liners. But in the meantime, which water based creams do you recommend? I didn't even know you could get them.
