I second getting your LO checked for a yeast infection, bc nothing will help that except for medication (in my experience anyway). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-595986 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 22:03:26 +0000 hilsy85 595986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I third triple paste! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-595983 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 22:02:02 +0000 immabeetoo 595983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BeachMama: have you tried triple paste? we cloth diaper but when he got a rash when we moved, that + disposables (baby naty naturecare brand from amazon) + blowdrying his butt in between changes was the only thing that helped. Coconut oil is nice for moisture but it doesn't make a difference, neither did CJs, Earth Angel Mama Baby, Boudreaux natural paste, or desitin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-595970 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 21:57:45 +0000 BeachMama 595970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@boiledpnut - do you just put the coconut oil directly on LOs bottom? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-594675 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:37:59 +0000 BeachMama 594675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks guys. We've been doing the baking soda baths and trying to have diaper free time (she peed all over me the other day!) And we've switched diaper brands a few times - Pampers, Honest Co, and Huggies. I think I may call her ped because it's literally been going on for a month or so now. At least she doesn't seem to uncomfortable with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-594607 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:20:12 +0000 Mrs. Stroller 594607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It might be a yeast rash - this is what our pediatrician told us to do when M had one:</p> <p>Lotions:<br /> 3x's a day: use lotramin<br /> All other changes: triple paste or Butt Paste</p> <p>Soaking:<br /> 3x's a day soak their privates in a sink with 1/4 c. of baking soda and warm water enough to submerge the area covered by the diapers.</p> <p>Airing out:<br /> as much diaper free time as possible</p> <p>She told me that there should be an improvement in 3 days and totally clear by day 7 otherwise they'd want to see him.</p> <p>Also, you may want to switch diaper brands, if you haven't already. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-for-chronic-diaper-rash#post-594273 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 12:41:02 +0000 babynumber1 594273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am not help, I just wanted to say I'm sorry!

Usually it clears up in a few days. But she's had a nasty rash for the past month or so that just isn't clearing up. We've been doing diaper free time, making sure she's really dry before diapering, and using Lotrimin and Desitin or Butt Paste. Does anyone have some magic recipe that I'm missing that will help clear it up?? </p>
