Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Clear up a rash?

A lady at my husbands work today said that taking a wet cloth diaper and rubbing it on the baby's face will clear up an acne/rash. 

I've heard of using breastmilk but never pee! Anyone else hear of this? Or is this lady just crazy?

  • Urine is sterile and yes, I've heard of adults putting it on their face t clear up acne, but I would not do this to myself or a baby.

  • Never heard of that! However, my friend said her OB recommended wiping babies face with wet (with just warm water!) cotton balls a few times a day. It cleared up her baby's acne, and mine as well. However, I really think that baby acne is just a phase and it will go away on its own. People think they find miraculous cures, but really the acne was already going away.
