Just changed DD diaper and she is really really red in the crack with some tiny flat bumps and a few bleed slightly (like pin pricks) when I wiped and she cried when wiped. I use Burt Bees cream or Triple paste and have also been using an antifungal cream since it turned red yesterday morning.
What else should I try??? I know to air her out a bit, any other suggestions?
TIA

I'd let her go without a diaper as long as possible...lay her on something you're ok with her going potty on and seriously like for an hour or two let her go. bath her gentle soap/wash cloth to get it clean and then apply diaper cream. My pedi's concoction is equal parts of aquaphor and triple paste mixed with 1/2 part of clotrimozal cream. Slather it on generously and then put on the diaper. Repeat at each diaper change and especially overnight.
Good luck!
Worth a call to your pedi. When DD had horrid diaper rash, they wrote us prescription for a compound treatment. It cleared things up quick!
When Evie's rashes open up, she uses an antibiotic cream so they don't become infected. Its worth a call to the pedi.
Otherwise, for bad rashes, we use Burt's Bees and in the tub I put some baking soda. Giver her lots of naked time.
