  • Yeast

    DD has the worst diaper rash ever. It looks like little pimples all over her bottom. I believe that it is yeast. What products do you recommend?

    in a pinch i have used vagisil. the cream works great. nystaten if you can get an RX

    dd #1 has terrible yeast issues...on the back of her knees and diaper area. i have her take acidophilus suplements every morning and it has cut down her outbreaks dramatically. her ped suggested it...but only one tab a day vs. three for adults.

      Second the Nystatin suggestion. It always works super fast for us.

        If it's not yeast and it's just the mother of all diaper rashes, use the super-duper butt cream recipe:

        equal parts Aquaphor, Maylox & Desitin (regular, not creamy). Mix well (it takes some doing) and then apply liberally. It's amazing.

          For my kids I would use probiotics (Primadophilus Childrens chewables)every day and also Waleda Diaper Cream on their bottoms as needed. These are available at Whole Foods or other natural food store. It worked very well.

            Besides all the sage advice above, I recommend tons of nakey noodle time.
