For kids, animals and plants, use the drops, about 4, in the water..
Honestly, it is magic with crying/stressed/fretting babies!!
It contains Star of Bethlehem for shock, and birth is just a very stressful experience, also for babies.
Oh and Rescue Remedy Cream is also brilliant, for everything, cuts, scrapes, burns, it soothes, and just heals it faster.
Never had the problem, but bet it works on nappy rash too!
For me, RR, drops, spray and cream are an essential part of my first aid kit!
