Thanks maz - I only use bamboo in her nappies and against her skin is either bamboo, cotton velour or microfleece. I realised this morning since the colder weather hit I have been drying the nappies inside and not out in the sun, I wonder if that has something to do with it since it is a nice sunny day the racks are outside and the nappies are out getting a tan

I also used to add a little bicarb to the bath to help the sore bits, so might try that tonight. Oh and just using sudocream for the first time and ages and man that stuff is thick! I feel like I am plastering her butt!
