1. Beth reacts to sudocrem...literally resulted in a luminous red bum! Had to use a steroid based cream to fix it (stop itch)
2. I was very happy when our pediatrician told us not to do an antibiotic cream
3. She recommended just an antifungal cream (nystasid). My sister recommended a cheaper antifungal cream (medaspor), but when I started seeing beth going a little bit more red I gave up on that one and went back to the pediatricians cream.
4. We are currently testing out whether corn starch helps. But I read somewhere you gotta be careful if it's a yeast infection, cause cornstarch will make it worse.
Well, that was a fail! Her bum was even reder after 30 min than before! Was it the corn (she seems to have a slight intolerance when she eats it) or just the powder rubbing her bum?
5. With a runny tummy I get so tired of wiping her red bum. I read that washing them with water and dissolved baking soda helps...so I do that...not sure if it makes a difference? But it is a good excuse to have to air dry afterwards, which also helps with the rash. It is difficult to keep a towel under her though when she is crawling :) so we have had a few mishaps on the carpet
