Effective Strategies on How to prevent Diaper
Rash
|
|
by Sarah Veda

|
Diaper rash is a really annoying baby
problem. It can get out of control easily, and can make your baby miserable.
Luckily, it can be controlled with a little effort on your part. Following are
some remedies that worked well with my children.
Some babies are just more prone to diaper rash than
others, and if yours is prone, you'll really have to keep on top of the problem.
The most important thing you can do is change your baby's diaper regularly.
Diaper rash is caused by the skin being constantly exposed to wetness, so
changing frequently can prevent the problem. Most of the diaper rash ointments
on the market are designed simply to protect your baby's skin from wetness, so
they are great at preventing diaper rash. If your baby is diaper rash prone, you
might want to use an ointment at every changing as a preventative measure.
But, what if your baby already has a raging case of diaper
rash? As I said, most of the products labeled as diaper rash ointments are best
at preventing diaper rash, not healing it. There are a few concoctions that can
help cure a bad case of diaper rash.

The first is Maalox - yes Maalox. Put some
liquid Maalox on a cotton ball and apply to baby's sore bottom. Let it dry a bit
before diapering. For obvious reasons, don't buy the mint flavor, and don't use
this bottle of Maalox for anything but treating diaper rash.
A second helpful treatment for diaper rash is an oatmeal
bath. There are some good oatmeal bath products on the market, even some
designed especially for baby. These work wonders on diaper rash. Usually one or
two baths is all it takes.
Finally, I had great luck when I mixed diaper rash
ointment with a little bit of hydrocortisone cream. About 3 parts diaper rash
ointment to one part hydrocortisone. One caution here- check with your doctor
before you try this one, since hydrocortisone cream is normally not recommended
for use on children under the age of two years.
If these remedies don't work, check with your
pediatrician. There may be some prescription products for extreme cases. But,
the most important measure to take for diaper rash seems to be persistence.
Keeping on top of the problem is your best bet for keeping the rash at bay.
