We sometimes went through 3 or 4 bibs a day because they'd get soaked through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-748895 Sun, 28 Apr 2013 09:34:54 +0000 78h2o 748895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: @hilsy85: @mrs. wagon: @MamaMoose: I used the Aquaphor and tried to keep the area dry (with lots of bibs) and it's gone! Yay!</p> <p>Thanks, everyone! I will try to stay on top of it now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739895 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 13:18:51 +0000 bunnylove08 739895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we slather aquaphor on DD when she gets that. I put extra on her at night since she likes sleep on her stomach </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739836 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:59:46 +0000 78h2o 739836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, thanks everyone! I'll try some of the creams suggested here and if that doesn't work, I'll see if the ped can prescribe something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739760 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:33:21 +0000 loveisstrange 739760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: We used their baby lotion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739744 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:29:30 +0000 MamaG 739744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree on drool rash. We used Desitin at bedtime. We would make sure she was clean and dry and then a light coating of Desitin and it would usually be mostly cleared by morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739668 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:08:44 +0000 mrs. wagon 739668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looks like drool rash to me. Wagon Jr. had it all the time. His drool was really out of control. He had it really bad for a while and no cream, prescribed or OTC, would get rid of it. Finally we got a steroid cream prescribed and it knocked it out overnight. </p> <p>You'll want to get rid of it before it starts breaking the skin... that's when it gets really ugly :( </p> <p>Once you've got it under control, stock up on bibs and change them out frequently! (and instruct daycare to do so as well.)</p> <p>We tried aquaphor and vaseline, and then were prescribed the following:</p> <p>Hydrocortisone (1%) Idoquinol (1%)<br /> Mupirocin (2%)<br /> Nystatin</p> <p>then finally the steroid:<br /> Mometasone Furoate (0.1%)</p> <p>The first time it broke the skin, the hydrocortisone idoquinol got rid of it. So maybe just try some hydrocortisone to start with? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739643 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:04:32 +0000 MamaMoose 739643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I second @hilsy85: suggestion of Aquaphor. It's more of an ointment so it should create a moisture barrier to allow the rash to heal without more drool/milk continuing to irritate the area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739630 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 11:59:37 +0000 78h2o 739630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: just their regular lotion, or something else? I know I have regular BB lotion and diaper rash cream at home. The EMAB cream does seem to work for her diaper rash, but I haven't really tried it on anything else, we we'll see.</p> <p>@hilsy85: Ok, maybe I'll try that. I do think it could be from drool or milk. You can't even see the rash from the front since it's sort of underneath and she usually has her chin tucked down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739279 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:24:28 +0000 hilsy85 739279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe try aquaphor? Could be from drool or milk getting caught between her chin and her neck (or between her chins if she's got more than 1 :) ). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739276 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:23:44 +0000 loveisstrange 739276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably drool rash. Just rub lotion on it and keep it as dry as possible. We used Burts Bees lotion when it happened to us.</p> <p>Honestly, the EMAB never worked worth a damn for us on anything. I know others who loved it, but I found regular plain coconut oil more effective. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/rash-under-babys-chin#post-739268 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:21:51 +0000 78h2o 739268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone experienced this? I don't know where it came from or how to treat it?</p> <p>Maybe from her sleep sack rubbing on it? Or drool getting on her clothes? Or maybe milk when they feed her at daycare?</p> <p>I've tried putting the Earth Mama Angel Baby Bottem Balm on (since I've heard it's good for other things), as well as breastmilk... so far it hasn't gone away but it's only been 1-2 days. </p> <p>Any other suggestions for what I should try? Should she seed the ped?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> [attach=2480/13/mlrmph.600x448.rash.JPG]
