What Should I Do for Diaper Rash?

I think my 2 month old son has some diaper rash on the inside of his thighs and his lower stomach above his diaper. I have never seen or felt diaper rash so I'm not sure if that is what it is. The skin is bumpy and feels leathery. I have applied some A+D Ointment on it but I'm not seeing a difference. Do any other moms have any suggestions of anything else I should be applying? Does Desitin work better? Thanks, D.

Diaper Rash or Yeast Infection

My daughter's daycare provider made a note that she thinks my daughter has a yeast infection. It looks like a regular diaper rash to me - how can you tell the difference? How do babies get yeast infections (improper diaper cleaning)? She has been off her antibiotics for a week now, so I don't think medicine is causing this. Can I just use the adult OTC creams or lotions? It doesn't seem to be causing her discomfort..yet...so I want to clear this up!
