Evan has an awful diaper rash. I noticed today that there was even a tiny bit of blood on it. It makes me upset because I started using Desitin Original on him when I noticed the beginning of a rash and it's just gotten worse! Anyone have a fabulous cream they can recommend??
Re: Recommend your diaper rash cream!!

I loved Butt Paste until it kept separating inside the tube every time we put the diaper bag in the car.

For really bad Diaper rash I think Dr Sears recommends Triple Paste.?
With that said, DS has only had a small diaper rash one time and we have always used Aquaphor. ?
My Pedi has said that when DS gets a diaper rash put Aquarphor on it every diaper change until it goes away. ?
If you can find Corona Cream use that. It is amazing. Also, let his butt air out as much as possible. My DS used to get these kinds of rashes whenever he was antibiotics (which caused major diarhea). We would slather on the Corona or Desitin and lay him on a couple of burp clothes or cloth diapers in his tummy. It would usually clear up (or at least not be as severe) in a day.
GL!
This!! I alternate between this and good old A&D.
Yes! We love Aquaphor b/c it has zero smell.
This !!!
this! my nephew had severe diaper rash- when i say severe, i mean it! SIL went to doc and they prescribed this ointment that was $300 and not covered by her insurance! so while we were at teh drugstore, i told her to get triple paste (the lady i nannied for was a NICU nurse and she used this on her twins)- it cleared it up in 2-3 days! good luck
Interesting - I didn't know this! But I definitely second the Butt Paste recommendation!
ditto this...
