Yes, most of you would have had J&J used on you as that was all there was back them. We were also encouraged to use powder when changing a nappy.
I don't have nor had J&J in our house for years and now try and have natural products for myself and the family and the grandchildren.
There is so much available these days, there is really no need to use anything other than natural products on your children
I used J&J for Joshua... didn't know any different... also fed him jars of baby food and formula after 5 1/2 months... he did have a cloth bum though lol. So, when I was pg with Oskar, I got some J&J stuff... why wouldn't I right? Used it before and was ok.... well Oskar and Elijah both have skin a bit more like mine and get horrid dry red patches in winter mostly... so I changed and got QV oil and wash and now use Dermaveen wash with oatmeal in it... has worked so well. I don't use a separate shampoo for them, I use the wash, it's PH balanced and soap free. Elijah's hair is still as soft as a babies and he's almost 2.
Re: powder... I used it all the time with Joshua too, but not for the little ones. If I do buy it I buy the cornflour one. Although I haven't had to buy it in that many years it's not funny lol. I did used to really love the smell of a powered baby after a bath though, such a clean and fresh smell about it... or maybe it's one of those subconcious memories.
