Diaper Rash

While all parents try extremely hard to prevent diaper rash, it will often occur anyway. There are a few things you can do that will help with prevention, as well as a few causes of diaper rash that you may not be aware of.

To prevent diaper rash, you will need to use the most absorbent diaper possible on your baby. This does not mean that you should leave the diaper on any longer than you would if it was less absorbent, but that it will keep the moisture off baby’s skin in the meantime.

The best ways to prevent diaper rash are to change baby immediately after urination or a bowel movement, as well as to apply a preventative cream after every change. This can be diaper rash ointment or even Vaseline. Anything that keeps moisture off baby’s skin will work.

It is also important to know that if your baby has diarrhea, the likelihood of diaper rash occurrence increases dramatically. A good deterrent for this is to leave the diaper off baby for as long as possible as often as possible, as well as keeping preventative ointments on the baby anytime a diaper must be worn.
