Nappy rash! Why does dd explode into horrible red raw rash the instant I put her in cloth?

She is 6 weeks old and literally after a few hours in cloth she is raw. It goes away quickly in sposies.

She hasn't reacted to detergent anywhere else, rest of her skin is perfect. All the nappies were washed and stripped after they came out of the loft and have stripped them again. Have caked her in sudocream to no effect.

Any magic solutions I may not have thought of? Ds never really had nappy rash, only time I had a problem with him it turned out to be fungal. These sposies are blowing a hole in my housekeeping budget, more importantly she now looks daft in her C4C dungarees

ds gets that red rash round the legs of the nappies but seems to be related to teething. We are using wonderoos with fleece and I use the Onelife biodegradable liners (which we wash for multiple uses till they get holes in - obviously we don't wash if pooed on) which are lovely and soft and seem to hold away more of the wetness then the paper liners (which ds seems to hate.) liners can be bougth on onelife or kiddicare sites

Waitrose sell good thick paper liners. I've heard silk liners good for bad nappy rash.

Silk or any liner soaked in cup camomile tea and wrung out also meant to be soothing.
