I'm so confused because I thought talc free was all I needed but the internets seem mixed. My son and I have been inhaling a lot of this powder lately because he has had some rashes and I'm starting to wonder if its okay or if I should lay off the stuff. What's your experience and knowledge on here?

I don't know about that specific brand, but we've never used any form of powder due to our allergist telling us it can cause asthma symptoms, and with DD's esophagus issues we weren't going to risk it. I have like 2 full things that just sit in our cupboard, I won't use on #2 either.

I bought & never used it. lol. i forgot about it.
it does have cornstarch, which is preferable to talc ( http://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancercauses/othercarcinogens/athome/talcum-powder-and-cancer )
but I have the ava powder, I only use as dry shampoo for O once in awhile. this is the ingredient sheet ( https://extranet.securefreedom.com/Ava/Personal/Resources/avababy%20baby%20powder%20info%20sheet%205-27-14.pdf ) . They use arrowroot powder, which is less allergenic than cornstarch

@sorrycharlie: I have the cream! I love it! I use it on myself too. Hahah

@MrsMccarthy: oh derp! hahaha. sleep deprivation. i use as a hand lotion lol

I love the smell sooooo much but whenever I applied it I did it very locally to limit inhalation. Put it on your hand first and apply it.
