Hi mommies,

I was curious to ask all the mommies as they know the most about treating diaper rash. What is the best way to clear up diaper rash? Is there a specific diaper rash cream you recommend for it? Thanks for your help.

A mixture of corn starch and the insides of a chamomile tea bag will help dry the area and the tea bag helps with inflammation. I've never used it but heard Bag Balm works too. I sure do hope your rash goes away.

Bag Balm is incredible. It can be used for many things, and diaper rash is one of them. The best thing about it is, that you only use a little bit and it lasts for a very long time. I hope it clears up Dear.

I've always been partial to Balmex my self. Works as well as Desitin, but without the glue-like sticky mess. The other key ingredient is air - you need to expose the area to the area as much as possible to dry and heal. (And don't be such a naughty baby, and have to be punished with a long stent in a wet diapy

)

Diaper rash can be prevented by washing with a child between diaper changes and leave the baby for a while without layers. This allows the skin to breathe. You must also remember that dry skin very well as water and moisture can cause a rash. You should also make sure that the baby wears diapers according to age and weight. If the layer is too tight, they can cause a rash on the skin only to contact. Sensitive skin is more prone to diaper rash to take care of her.
