Naomi, my little baby of 4 has not yet been affected by the diaper rash. During her four year age span, we take care of our sweetheart with the home remedies for diaper rash. From the very beginning, I and my wife were conscious about rashes; especially the diaper rash was our prime concern.
We were conscious because we had a bitter experience about the diaper rash that affected my sister’s daughter of 3 months age. That little baby was seriously attacked by the rashes derived from the diaper rashes because of wearing the diaper to the baby for a long span of time.
The skin irritation of that baby was so serious that she had to be hospitalized by a doctor or a skin specialist. For around a month-long treatment the baby was cured of the diaper rash.
As we had such a bitter experience, after coming our little one into the world, we immediately took advice from a doctor of baby skin and rash specialist about the protection and prevention of diaper rash. The doctor advised us to follow some simple instructions at home and we are still practicing the instructions for protecting our baby’s skin.
We have got a big and real result in respect of caring for the babies’ soft and sophisticated skin with the home remedies for diaper rash.
I am really happy about my baby’s rash free skin and irritation free moment and that’s why want to share the steps I am still following for baby’s skin protection;
- We kept the baby’s skin dry always and ensured that the baby’s skin was not in contact with urine and stool.
- We have been changing the diaper frequently; around 7/8 times a day.
- We always use ultra-absorbent and disposable diapers.
- We never used baby wipes with alcohol and propylene glycol for cleaning the baby’s bottom.
- Always leave the diapers and incontinence briefs off as much as possible.
- Regularly use the best diaper rash cream for protecting the skin.
- Did not use diapers that are multi-layer and uncomfortable for my baby.
- We did not use any plastic pants to cover the diaper that can make wet the diaper area my baby.
- We have given the baby more fluids to make the urine less concentrated.
These were the major home remedies for diaper rash that we practiced on a regular basis and our little baby is still growing up without the most annoying and irritating diaper rash. Among the above steps for protecting the baby’s delicate skin, we use the best diaper rash cream regularly.
