Nappy rash :(

[Olive]

hun i looooooove pawpaw cream in the black tube! works a treat

I'm putting moo goo on at every change but it's not helping. She's wearing sposies at night still so I but the zinc and castor oil on then and it's a lot better by morning but then when using cloth during the day it just gets worse as the day progresses.

Perhaps it could be thrush then if it's not disappearing altogether? Is it spotty and very red?

Have you strip washed your mcn's lately? That might do the trick?

[Heaven]

Yeah it's spotty. Was pretty much gone this morning, hopefully it doesn't come back today like it did yesterday.
My MCNs are all new, I have only just started using them.

That happens to DD if I don't change her every two hours. Or if she is teething, and her wee is a lot stronger, then I sometimes change even more often to stop the rash.
Though she generally gets more of a sunburn type rash, not spotty.
Oh, and I started using Invisible Glove on her to protect her butt a bit more - it works well. I haven't had an issue with washing it off either, that I can tell (it's plant based)

I was going to say teething?.... esp from what you've said in our BBuddies thread.

I hope it goes away and stays away soon You are doing a great job.

Hey Heaven. I second the frequent changing advice. MCN can't go as long as sposies. Also, try to give her some nappy free time each day for a while - it might help to dry out her skin naturally.

I think some kids are just more prone to nappy rash tbh. If it makes you feel any better, DS gets a mild rash quite frequently in the folds at the top of his thighs and I've noticed it occurs when he's been in a nappy longer than about 2 hours.
