Can i use neosporin on a 10 month old?

Accidentally clipped a bit of DD's skin when clipping her nails. It won't stop bleeding! I went to CVS, no small band aids, so the poor thing has a huge band aid on her pinky. Anyway, I can put a little neosporin on the cut?

I would as long as its covered, so she can't get it in her mouth. I have used it on DS' diaper rash a few times

We've used it on Margo's butt already

I think it's pretty safe, the one LC told me to use it instead of lanolin on my nipples so I'd assume it's even okay for her to get in her mouth.

I did that when Savannah was about 6 weeks old. The nurse just said to put it on her finger, and cover it up (so she doesn't chew on it and swallow some of it).
