If so, which brand do you use? We only use Desitin if she looks red, otherwise we skip it.

We use hydrocortisone cream once in a blue moon or after she's worn sposies, but otherwise we never use an actual diaper cream.
I have sample sizes of (what seems like) every brand diaper cream in her change table drawer, if ever needed though!

We don't. My mom always wants to use it after every change but I haven't seen the need. Every once in a while we use it. I like the California Baby one.

We use coconut oil during the day if she looks red, but at night before bed she always gets sudocreme.

We don't unless he is red. His skin is so sensitive so we keep things like that to a minimum.

I didn't use to at all, but I switched cloth diaper detergents, and it makes her skin a little red. So, I've started putting coconut oil on about every other diaper change. It makes her smell delicious and gives her suuuuuper soft skin!!

Not unless red, esp since it requires a liner now that we use cloth. We use angel baby bottom balm. Its awesome for when they get little scratches on their face or elsewhere too...usually heals them up within a day or so.

We use aquaphor every night and will only use something during the day if its red.

Only if it's red during the day, but I have started putting it on before bed since he's sleeping longer.

Only if she's red, or is starting to look like she might be getting red!

@MerryC: We use the Bottom Balm, too, and I thought it was safe for cloth diapers?
I use it after every poop. When he just pees, I don't wipe him, so the balm stays on from the last poop change.

We have used Desitin, Aquaphor, Monkey Butt. Use it just about every time since she seems to always be a little red.

@MerryC: we use that when he's red too. No liner is necessary though. It's cloth diaper safe.

@allison: @boiledpnut: Our cloth shop said to still use a fleece liner even with a cloth diaper safe balm. We have all Cotton Babies diapers and the warranty is void if you use any diaper rash cream.....so since I've already made a couple of warranty claims, and I want to be able to keep doing so for the full first year, the liners are important for me. But luckily since using cloth diapers and just water-wet cloth wipes, they hardly ever get rashes anymore.

Only Aquaphor before bed. If she had a rash I used some bacitracin and Burt's bees diaper cream.

only if looking a little red/irritated... we use Mustela's diaper cream - LOVE it.

We cloth diaper and use coconut oil at almost every diaper change. Now that the weather is warmer, though, my boys are getting a lot more naked time. Air is the best preventative measure for diaper rash, in my experience.

We're an aquaphor family too. So far we're using it every diaper change since the little dude had his first diaper rash.

I put diaper cream on every night after Lo's bath. Otherwise I use it when she's red during the day.

Coconut oil almost every change. Sometimes I use some BabyGanics protective ointment (like Aquaphor) if she seems a little red.

We do aquaphor at every night time diaper, and we use triple paste if he's red. If not then I don't usually do anything for daytime diapers unless I remember!
