Diaper Rash
-
This is an incredibly common condition when skin is inflamed by diaper contents.
-
Time with diaper off and barrier creams are the most important considerations.
-
Barrier creams prevent the skin from being affected by the liquid or solid contents of a dirty diaper. They become a literal BARRIER or block against the irritating substances.
-
Change diaper frequently! Do not let baby sit in a wet or soiled diaper for long. Every second counts!
-
My favorite barrier creams contain products like ointments, beeswax or zinc oxide. Use them if the skin seems pink, red, sore or inflamed or before bed.
