    Unhappy Nappy Rash Cream Suitable for cloth

    Poor Jett has a red bum today. Nothing too major, but red enough to warrant some sort of treatment. I sent him to Childcare with Moogoo (for the first time) only to be told that they can't use it because it contains almond oil and they have a total nut free policy. It is especially a concern as one of the other babies in the room has severe allergies. So now I don't know what to use because that is what I have always used. Anyone else got any ideas for NR treatment suitable for cloth?

    Is curash powder ok?

    Apparently bepanthen is ok?

    I can't believe they said that to you - my childcare is nut free as well, but more than happily use my moogoo. They lock it in a cupboard under the changing area.

    Yeah I thought so too, but I guess it is their policy and if the child with severe allergies wasn't in his room they may not have been as concerned. Sux though!

    Yeah I thought bepanthen and I have some at home, but thought it was fine only in emergencies?

    we too use the pawpaw (in the red jar) and amolin (particularly amolin for daycare days).

    we use (yellow jar) paw paw.
    HInt: the red jar contains petroleum which repels moisture- dont put directly on bums against mcns as it will reduce their absorbancy
