Nappy rash - best nappies?

5 replies

Hi, my daughter is 7mo and is suffering from her first lot of nappy rash! I've tried everything - she's nappy free as much as possible, I'm using barrier creams (have tried a few) I'm using just water to clean her in between changes and bathing daily. The only thing I haven't tried is changing her nappies. She's using the lidl ones but I'm thinking maybe a chemical free would be better. How does everyone find pampers pure? Any advice on the best disposable chemical free nappies would be great' thanks in advance Smile

Metanium yelliw usually clears my son's nappy rash.

Papers gave him a sore bum we use lidl or asda. Just try changing see how she goes x

I tried that nappy cream and it made it worse 😬 so just using sudocrem now. I'm even setting alarms through the night to change her nappy, she's such a good sleeper and sleeps from 1830-0730 and that just seems too long to stay in a wet nappy. I usually change it when I go to bed but now I'm going in about 3 and doing it then as well!

I had one baby who got rash in any disposable nappy so stuck to washables. Other baby got rash no matter what though certain brands were worse - metanium helped but basically at home I put her with me in the kitchen or bathroom as much as possible with no nappy at all.

Try different barrier cream. We liked the johnsons one for ds' nappy rash but is that the one they stopped making? Nappy free time, preferably in sunshine. If you have a room that gets sun when it's actually nice, mat on floor and bed and cuddles/games for at least 20 minutes at a time. I know talcum powder is not recommended these days generally but definitely helps while wearing a nappy during nappy rash break out. Obviously change nappy as soon as wet/dirty.

My son had awful nappy rash to the point of blistering. We tried every nappy and found that the only ones that don't make him sore are Morrison's own brand.
