I've never used lotion, powder, cream, or anything..I wonder if I should have by now? What is the cream for??

We've only used cream a handful of times when they had a rash, or a little redness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406867 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 10:16:40 +0000 erwoo 1406867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unless he gets a rash, just a wipe. Sometimes no wipe b/c he's eager to get going already, especially when we do it standing up. If you're worried about rashes you can always put some Aquaphor before his night diaper, but I can't see that you'll need to do this until he's a bit older and sleeping through the night. Newborns get their diapers changed a lot the first couple of months. Also, there's some controversy with baby powder, I think? I bought it and never needed to use it. I might have used it to fix a creak on our hardwood floors a few times. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406820 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 10:04:20 +0000 Crisark 1406820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe and a preemptive application of butt paste (which is my savior). Have only dealt with one tiny amt of diaper rash in 10months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406790 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 10:00:19 +0000 regberadaisy 1406790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We actually used a wash cloth instead of disposable wipes for a long time. We started with wash cloth but when we made the switch to disposable wipes she developed a bad rash so we went back. Didn't stop until she was much older. But we used disposable wipes when we're out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406679 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:39:07 +0000 Pepper 1406679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: We also used paper towels and water when he was really little because the wipes were so irritating on his bum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406678 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:39:03 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1406678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree I really like coconut oil and don't worry about using it often. </p> <p>I don't think you have to dry them but I do think that letting them air dry or pat dry can help prevent some rashes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406649 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:35:03 +0000 Alivoo01 1406649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: I don't wipe if it's a wet diaper either. Only if it's dirty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406647 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:34:37 +0000 Alivoo01 1406647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe then diaper. If he's a little red, I put some cream on. </p> <p>DH wipes, powder, then diaper. I don't put powder on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable/page/2#post-1406172 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 03:05:52 +0000 daniellemybelle 1406172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even always wipe her if it's just wet - I just use a dry area of the diaper to blot her a little. Of course if the diaper is soaked then I will use a wipe &amp; then blot a little with the fresh diaper.</p> <p>I don't wait for a rash to use ointment but I only do it if she is getting red. I use just a pea sized amount before bed.</p> <p>Coconut oil is great for their little bums so I often put that on her after a bath. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1406054 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 00:11:20 +0000 ALV91711 1406054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe, penaten clear, diaper. 10 months and not a rash. Usually once or twice a day I don't use cream, but he us pooping so much lately that I use it at every change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1406040 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 23:55:29 +0000 googly-eyes 1406040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe and new diaper.

I had been using cloth and Huggies - switched to cloth and Pampers and rash finally cleared up...don't know if it was just coincidence, but maybe try another brand?</p> <p>If no rash, wipe and dipe... If rash, wipe with water/cloth wipe or paper towel, a little naked time, then Rx cream plus Burt's Bees diaper cream or Aquaphor + Burt's Bees. With cloth, EMAB butt cream. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405903 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 22:49:18 +0000 BeachMama 1405903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She used to get rashes all the time so for a while we were using Desitin or Vaseline every time. Now I usually don't do anything unless theres a rash, though sometimes I'll do vaseline at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405808 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 22:10:48 +0000 beachbee 1405808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use cloth diapers and cloth wipes (just small baby wash cloths, nothing fancy). We use a dry cloth for pee diapers and get the cloths wet with just plain old water for poos. We use coconut oil if we see any redness and that usually does the trick. I agree it depends on the sensitivity of the baby's skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405667 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 21:33:19 +0000 Chocoholic 1405667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is only one month, but do far we do wipe, dry and clean diaper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405655 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 21:26:38 +0000 Corduroy 1405655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We wipe and diaper. Daycare always puts butt paste but it makes me think they aren't that great about changing her as soon as she poops. </p> <p>When LO was born the hospital said no wipes for one month. They told us to use Viva paper towels and water for that time. I don't know how common that is but now I precut wipes for all my friends that deliver there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405514 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:56:47 +0000 Ash 1405514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe and dipe.

If she's got a rash going on, we tend to blot her but remove as little of the diaper cream as possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405477 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:48:27 +0000 rattles 1405477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe and dipe, aquaphor or desitin if she gets a rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405471 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:47:35 +0000 Pepper 1405471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe, dipe. If red, I'll use triple paste or aquaphor. Depends on what's nearby. If he actually has a rash, triple paste topped with aquaphor. We haven't had a rash in months though.</p> <p>Never baby powder. As others have said, it's not recommended. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405454 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:43:55 +0000 mrsjazz 1405454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use wipes and some kind of cream/ointment. Normally A&amp;D when there's no rash (not all the time, mostly with bedtime or after a poop) and Buttpaste when she has a rash or if she's pooping a lot.</p> <p>No baby powder, that's pretty old school and not really recommended anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405401 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:32:30 +0000 ShootingStar 1405401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now at 2.5 months he's only pooping every few days so we just wipe only when poopy (with cloth wipes which are fantastic) and new diaper. But when he was a couple weeks old he had this rash that wouldn't go away so we were using cream at every change. Turned out it was caused by thrush so we used rx stuff and A&amp;D cream until it went away (which took forever). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405368 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:23:49 +0000 skipra 1405368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipes after nasty poops and then a squirt of water and pat with cloth wipe because the regular wipes can give ds a rash. If the poop is not too gross I just use water and a cloth wipe. Aquaphor every night and ds really doesn't get rashes. If he is particularly poopy on any given day I might put some Aquaphor on once during the day too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405165 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:38:57 +0000 lavender 1405165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wipe, pat/air dry then new diaper unless there's redness or a rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1405139 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:34:14 +0000 PurplePeony 1405139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually wipe and new diaper, but when she was tiny and pooping all. the. time, we used some olive oil to keep her bum from getting chapped and red. We've only used diaper cream when her skin started to look a little too pink for our liking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-diaper-those-who-use-disposable#post-1404994 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:05:02 +0000 Foodnerd81 1404994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do wipe, then let it air dry and wave the clean diaper to dry, then put the diaper on. If she has some redness I put a little aquaphor, or if it is getting rash-y I use butt paste. </p> <p>When she has bad diaper rash we use wet paper towels. </p>
