Has Anyones Child Ever Become Allergic to Pamper's Brand Diapers?

I have a nephew that was allergic to only Pampers diapers. It has to do with the way they're made. My sister-in-law said that they were made with bleach (that was 18 years ago).

when my kids had bad diaper rash, I used desetin. It was nice and thick and would protect their skin from the dry diapers. I also liked to use A&D ointment, and used that most of the time on them.

Yes!!! My friend's little boy had the exact same problem. The pediatrician said to switch to Huggies and it went away! So from now on she only uses Huggies. Go get some!

My daughter had the same reaction. I think its something that they put in the diapers for absorbency. I would switch back to Huggies (that's the only brand we could use) and for awhile with each diaper change use vaseline. It acts as a great wetness barrier and allows for things to heal. You might also want to try letting him air out for a bit. My daughter was usually cleared up the next day. Good Luck! (And I miss So Cal too!)

My daughter was allergic to Pampers, same reaction as everyone else. I found that the ultratrim huggies leak terribly, so I tried Luvs since they are like Pampers, better at not leaking, and my daughter has no problems with the Luvs.
Nystatin is only for a yeast infection so unless you believe that he has a yeast infection in addition to the allergic reaction I would just use Desitin. It's such a shame with diapers being so expensive that you'll have to give them away or get rid of them, but I've been there, done that. Good Luck!

I have not had any problems with Pampers with either of my kids, but when my youngest one gets a diaper rash, our pediatrician suggested Triple Paste (I bought mine at Babies R Us) and it has worked exceptionally well. I also let the diaper area air dry before putting on another diaper.

My daughter was definitely allergic to Pampers. She could wear any other diaper, but everytime I tried Pampers her bottom would become red and raw. My ped gave had us use Nistatin for her rash, it worked wonders on her. She would be completely clear by the next diaper change. Unfortunately, you can't get it over the counter so just ask you doctor about it.
