It is so sad when little babies get nappy rash.

My DD had really bad nappy rash and it turns out that we can't use any product with zinc in it - it only ever made it worse. This is not the case for all babies, it actually helps most but we tried lots of different zinc creams and found they only seemed to inflame the rash.

We found canestan works wonders, but it is designed for a fungal kind of nappy rash (not just chaff nappy rash) and I am not sure about using it on a tiny baby.

I also completely agree with Kitten - your bm is the best thing for your bub if you are sick - your body will be making antibodies that helps you to fight the illness but it also deposits these in your bm to help your baby fight it. Your bm is the best medicine you can give your baby (there is actually nothing else she can take at her age).

I really hope her nappy rash clears up soon. I also hope you are feeling better soon
