Hello 🙂
My DD is 18 months, and she has been suffering with nappy rashes for a while now. They have never been too bad (never blisters and blood) but they are stubborn and the older she gets the more aware she is and tries to scratch and whatnot. We have mainly used Water Wipes and Pampers Premium protection on her, but we have tried different brands of both nappies and wipes to see if they would make a difference, but so far they haven't. We always change her very often, and dry before applying whatever cream we are using at the time - we have tried them ALL.
We have been to the GP many times and I feel like they can't put the finger on what's actually wrong. They have prescribed antifungal creams three times, and all of them have worked on due time. The thing is that they all had steroids on them, so they would have worked anyway even if the cause was different. Fungal creams on there own have never worked for us, even when the rash is on it's early stages.
She does have some eczema flare ups and very sensitive skin, so I think that maybe her skin just doesn't like disposable nappies. I have tried the eco chemical free nappies, but the few that we've tried are either massively expensive or quite rubbish quality.
WIBU to get a stash of reusables at this point? I just want her bum to look nice and redness free for once ðŸ˜
