Need a rash cream, but using MCN's....

[Pretty Butterfly]

Kane is getting a red- tipped penis, and his testicles are starting to look sore too....

I think it was wearing the spossies in hossy, and probably the pain meds making his urine more acidic, poor bub.....

Were back in his beloved cloth, (yes, he knows the difference, and goes and gets one when I say "nappy time", and tantrums when I get a spossie!!), and I know some mummies use a cream off the internet, but what can I grab from the chemist thats okay on cloth nappies???

I wanna get something on him quick smart if I can....

Jodi, if I ever have to use a cream, I use a fleece liner in between the nappy and the skin. They can be washed in hot water or soaked to get the cream off if you need to.

[Pretty Butterfly]

Oh, I dont have any....

Maybe put some "store bought" throw away liners???

I only have microfibre and bamboo inserts at the monent to go with my nappies....

[Arimeh]

Jodie - most people use microfleece liners - but you can get the papery type ones to go on your nappies too so its a barrier between normal bum cream and the inside of the nappy.

I use moogoo cos you don't need a liner for that. Check out moo goo dot com dot au for the nearest stockist near you. I was surprised to see one 20 minutes away from me.

Its great stuff!!!

Resolve balm will work great on his boy bits. It rubs in (but repels urine) so should be ok with MCN's. Wipe with saline or warm water at each nappy change and apply, covering all nappy area. HTH.

[alioops]

Bepanthen Ointment is OK. I dont use liners with that and I do a thin layer, havent had any rub onto the nappies. The ointment is lanolin based.

You could also try cornflour.

[Mum2SweetCs]

I personally havent used these but I have seen johnson and jonhson nappy liners at BigW?

Although, one pack was opened and the liners looked like these blue kitchen wipes!

[Kazbah]

you can use chux as a liner too

moogoo! and if you call them after you put your order in they'll send it ASAP - I usually get my order within 2 days of ordering.

[rhyb]

Um which moogoo is it? Aiden has the same problem...

[Arimeh]

Its the soothing cream. scroll down the page after you select the udder cream and you'll find it.

HTH!

[Mummyof2under2]

I have heard that cornflour is good for nappy rash when using mcns.

[Pretty Butterfly]

Mel, I cant find the soothing one??

Just the normal, full cream, and MSM, is it the MSM one?? Its a little exxy.....

I'm also gonna get the one for ezcema for my neice, and a lip balm for me!!!


Oh, ok, found it... The MSM one has "soothing" on the little tub!!!!

I'm a little tired.....

[Sair]

I have been using Cherub Rubs Bum Balm on Noah, it is exxy but it is organic. Haven't noticed any issue on the MCN's I didn't think it would be an issue as it is very lotion like, very light. Good luck!!

[Arimeh]

Jodie - it is expensive - but you dont' need a lot of it, and its a huge tub.

[Pretty Butterfly]

I ordered it....

I'll have Little Girl soon too, so it wont go to waste... Ill use it for both the kids, and on my 12 yr olds eczema too.....

I dont wanna ruin my ( and yours!) beautiful nappy stash....

[Mum2SweetCs]

Hey Purplemama,

Did you get your order yet (i know you ordered it yesterday but apparently they deliver really fast LOL)

Just wondering if it works because I really am tempted to order some but (like all eczema creams I have tried) scared i might be dissappointed.

Let me know how it goes

Cheers!

[krysalyss]

You can't just use sudocrem?

[Pretty Butterfly]

I did use some sudo-cream yesterday... But haven't washed the nappy yet...

It is sticky though..... I hope it washes out ok... And he didn't look any better anyway...


I hope it does work on the eczema.. my son only gets the odd breakout, and I hate using the commercial stuff, full of chemicals, on him. I'll let you know!!!

My sister will love it if it works....
