diaper rash.. help!

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
My DD has officially never had a diaper rash until 2 weeks ago.  One night DH didn't put diaper rash cream on to protect her at bedtime, and she woke up with a horrible rash!!!  Since then, we have tried A+D, Desitin, Balmex, and baby powder (tried each one for 4ish days...) and the rash is still there.  Has this happened to anyone else's LO?  I am losing the battle to get rid of this rash and I feel so bad for her!  I just want it to go away and am hoping you other mommies can give me some tips that worked for you!  Thanks!!

    Lo had a food reaction a month ago (horrible diaper rash! first time having it too). We did a combination of Boudreaux's Butt Paste and cortizone cream. We also dried DS with a cloth diaper at every changing and allowed him to be diaper free five minutes at a time a few times a day. Cleared up in 2 days. Hope this helps!!

    Could it be a yeast infection?  They won't clear up unless you use anti-fungal, I would check with your pedi to see if this could be the case.

    Neosporin works wonders.

    And try using alcohol free wipes or soft towels and warm water.

    Ditch the wipes and use a face clothe.. we only ever used wipes the first week or so and then only if out and no access to a sink.  Never had diaper rash

    totally agree with  PP wet clothe and some air time best cure  and prevention :)
