    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!!

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

    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!

    You can't just use sudocrem?

    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....

    Nope. Thats a barrier cream - so the cream gets stuck in the fibres of the material, clogs it up and the absorbency of the material suffers. Last time daycare used a nappy cream like that on one of DS's nappys - apart from me going ballistic - I had to soak it in quite warm water and scrub with a toothbrush to remove it from the fibres so it would work properly again.

    So yeah - stay away from the barrier creams.
