Any way to stop MOTN poops?

s-a-r-a-h · May 2011

For the past few days, H was been pooping either in the middle of the night or super early in the morning. As a result, she's developed a bad diaper rash. She used to be pretty regular, typically pooping right after breakfast and then again in the afternoon. I think her teeth are bothering her because she hasn't been eating as much the past few days, which I think is contributing to her irregularity. Any tips for getting her back on a regular schedule?

Also, we've been using California Baby for her diaper rash and it seems to be helping. But she has little blisters, which look really uncomfortable to me. Should we be using something stronger or take her to the pedi?

ETA: Forgot to add that we use cloth diapers, so anything we use needs to be CD friendly.

No advice for the poop times, but I used triple paste on A's antibiotic diaper rash once and it cleared up in a matter of hours. You might try that.

You might want to ask on the cloth diaper board for something stronger the CA baby.

I don't think you can do anything about the nighttime pooping...sorry... Wink

We use little twig diaper rash cream. It's never stained out CDs. I've never used CA baby on him so I don't know if it's stronger or not, but it works well.

I've gotten it at the ecoshoppe next tot he vitamin shop in the arboretum near the sprouts and jason's deli.

as for the poop, i don't think you can do anything about that.
