Can a suede cloth allergy develop after a while (like a year)?
DS is primarily in BG AIOs and has been for more than a year. He got a wicked rash a few months ago - didn't look like yeast or anything else. He also had some rash outside his diaper area (on his belly/legs) that the dr thought was probably heat rash/eczema (though it wasn't red at all for about the first two weeks - just bumpy). Well, then he got a diaper rash and it was really wicked - he got water blisters on a couple occasions - really sad
So, we've had him in disposables for a little more than two weeks and he is completely healed. I stripped the diapers, super soaked them in hot water, and did a wash with a little bleach and extra rinses - just to make sure there was no build up (or yeast, though I really don't think it was yeast at all).
I've been thinking about what different things could have caused it - he was eating a fair amount of citrus and mangoes, we had changed his bath soap... it could have been a few different things. Then it occurred to me last night... wonder if it could be the suede cloth??? We have about half bg aios and half organic aios - he'd been sleeping in the OS pockets.
Any words of wisdom? Thanks
Re: Suede cloth allergy/rash question
DS born 8/2010 - preliminary stages of SN int'l adoption - fur mama to 2 shelter dogs; cloth diapering, babywearing, EBFing mama
It wasn't ammonia burn and I don't think it was build-up... usually with those he just gets bright red kind of all over the diaper area (first thing in the morning, after wearing his night time diaper all night) - then I know it's time to strip.
These were like water blisters Pretty different than his "usual" rashes.
