So disheartened :( can't get on top of the nappy rash

[koru]

Hmmmmm _ I hadn't considered fungal rash as it only occurs on hot days but you could be right
Whoops - What's a 'strip wash'? Is there a special washing powder/soap I need to use? DD isn't eating solids yet but yoghurt is a big part of my diet and I intend to feed her lots of it when the time comes.
Arimeh - they are Haute pockets (supposedly same design as Bumgenius) - not sure if that is 'suedecloth'? DD was fine in them til about a month ago - the first heat wave she had no problems so may well be due to fungus after all
Thanks everyone for your help!

Canasten (anti-fungal cream) has worked for a really nasty nappy rash in the past, as has Betadine (which I used with sposies so I didn't stain cloth).

I find if it's really bad I need to have a few hours until bedtime with liberal amounts of a good zinc based powder to create a bit of dryness and then I coat heavily with Nappy Goo (made by the children's hospital in Melb you can find stockists on the website) at the night nappy. This has helped me with some pretty bad ones.
