Thanks everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085939 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 21:48:51 +0000 ShootingStar 2085939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the diaper rash we do Vaseline-like ointment from aden &amp; anais called Mum &amp; Bub and A&amp;D on top of that. The A&amp;D is easily wipe able and provides a barrier on the skin. We also do ground oatmeal and baking soda in the bath. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085806 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 20:42:20 +0000 twodoghouse 2085806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bum: My nearly 10-month old twins had a stomach bug last weekend (mostly diarrhea, but some vomiting from my son) so we just went through this. I ended up changing them every time I went in middle of the night to feed them (unfortunately, they do not sleep through the night!). Even though they were having a lot of dirty diapers during the day, they only had one overnight. I still changed them if they were wet because they were pretty red and irritated from all the pooping. My kids were not eating well in addition to the poop/vomit so we were doing pedialyte for my son and really on the look out for dehydration. The nurse at our ped's office mentioned that one sign was dry diapers when you'd expect them to be wet. So if your daughter's diaper was really dry, I might try to do a couple dream feeds to see if you can get some fluids into her. Then you can do the sniff test and see if she needs a change at the time too? I hope she's feeling better soon. It's awful to see these little ones sick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085746 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:56:34 +0000 Mrs. Bum 2085746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got her back up to give her a bottle because now I'm thinking about the dehydration issue. Changed her and she was dry for once... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085744 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:54:44 +0000 Mrs. Bum 2085744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: she has been sleeping through the night. And we had such a busy day with her that I doubt she'll get up tonight </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085738 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:51:57 +0000 avivoca 2085738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How much does she normally get up at night? We had a horrible diaper rash a few months ago and I just did a sniff test at night when she would normally get up to see if she had pooped. I tried to give her some diaper-free time, but it still took about four days for it to heal completely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085716 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:34:56 +0000 Mrs. Bum 2085716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: thank you! ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085712 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:33:27 +0000 mrbee 2085712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bum: Mrs. Wagon had a great writeup of how she treated diaper rash!!</p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/03/08/diaper-rash/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/03/08/diaper-rash/</a></p> <p>Mrs. Stroller had a good writeup here too:</p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/05/11/diaper-rash-drool-rash/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/05/11/diaper-rash-drool-rash/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085709 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:30:06 +0000 Mrs. Bum 2085709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm also using regular diaper rash cream as well as a prescription cream and gave her a bath in epson salt a few hours ago </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-to-do-2#post-2085708 Wed, 25 Feb 2015 19:27:56 +0000 Mrs. Bum 2085708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo is fast asleep on me right now but has had diarrhea all day. More watery than poopy. From that a bad red rash has begun and so every changing is her screaming. Next changing I'm going to use a warm rag in place of wipes. But question is how much should I wake her tonight? It's been a long day she had an appointment with a doctor and didn't nap more than 2 hours so I think she's probably going to be out for the night. She's 10 months. Suggestions~ </p>
