I posted recently about the fact my DD poos all the time and she now has a very sore bottom with red open sores.
She’s been prescribed and anti-fungal / anti-septic combo cream to help shift it. The pharmacist advised leaving it on for 30mins before applying a barrier cream.
This would be fine except I don’t think my DD goes 30mins without pooing. I’ve just applied it. We had 10 mins of waiting with nappy off, she sneezed and did a poo. So I’ve had to wipe her and reapply.
Every single time I look her nappy is dirty. She seems to do lots of little poos in between big ones. We are changing her every 1-2 hours but this doesn’t seem to be enough.
What can I do? I am at my wits end.
For info she is 4.5 weeks old and EBF.
Please help. I feel so sorry for her.
