Diaper Rash - Osseo,MN

My 13 month old daughter has a fairly red rash right now- possibly from the diaper brand we use... Anyway- I've seen in previous posts some creams that some of you moms swear by, and of course I neglected to write them down. Can anyone recommend an ointment or cream that works well for you? Thanks!

What can I do next?

Triple Paste is the best and seems to clear up the redness of almost any rash by the next diaper change!!! Get it at Target or Walgreens!

Good Luck!

Plender's Diaper Ointment. It's made by pharamcists out of a small town in NW Iowa. They sell it in the Lewis stores (when they can keep it on hand!). Best stuff I have EVER used.

Desitin is good. Just remember to really cake it on, especially at work, so it can just sit there and soak in and heal it. There is no such things as too much. The more the better, and it will go away right way.

I know a lot of people like that Butt Cream or whatever it is called. Can get at Target, I believe in the baby section. I always used organic, natural stuff. My favorite was Northern Essence Better Butt(er) Balm and the Diaper Rash Salve.

Good luck

Triple paste. It is avail. at walmart, walgreens, CVS...

Resinol was a mircle paste for us. I recommend it to everyone.

My 1st son had tons of issues with Diaper Rash and Aquafor always worked like a charm. It really helps to protect the area while it heals. It's also great for really dry skin - I currently use it on a few dry patches on my 2nd son as well as on my hands from all the constant hand washing.

We use A&D.
Its gentle and doesn't sting like desitin.
I have used both myself on the occasion "bad" day after bad food.

A&D is definitely better.
Just make sure her butt is good and dry, it provides a moisture blocking layer. And it has vit A & D in it and a few other goodies to help healing, I usually notice improvement over night!!

Beaudroux's Butt Paste. I just saw in Parent's Magazine that they make an all-natural formula now too, but I haven't tried it. The "original" version works wonders for my son who has eczema and sensitive skin.

i love arbonne's diaper cream. it works the best of any i have tried and doesn't sting. the kids i baby sit for use bottom butter and it works extremely well but i'm not a fan of the smell or feel of it.
