Getting Rid of babys diaper rash

My mother gave me this idea on diaper rashes for babys. She said use shortening and corn starch. I will admit it did work for 1 of my babys. My other baby it just makes it work. Is there any other advice you could give me. I've tried everyone of the store products and the babys rash is bad. Thank You!

have you asked your baby dr? It may be some sort of rash that is related to a food allergy. Maybe the baby needs an anti-biotic.

Shortening and corn starch are not so good as they may worsen the rash if it is caused by yeast infection. The best way is to apply a vaseline based antiseptic cream such as Drapolene for prevention and treatment.

Turn off the television and teach your children how to think.

If topical ointments (such as A & D) don't work, you may want to ask your pediatrician.

Other than that, one of the best cures for diaper rash is air. Let the baby go bare bottomed as much as possible (place waterproof pads underneath the baby when s/he is on something difficult to clean).

You can also try using a blow dryer. Turn it to the lowest possible setting and aim it so that the air current blows across the baby's skin, not directly at it. Be sure not to let the dryer come in contact with the baby (and limit the use time) so as to prevent burning baby's tender skin.

When my baby got diaper rash i would simply take her diaper off during the night. I would put down towels to absorb any urine during the night. Usually the next day the rash would be greatly improved or gone.

An emmolent or paste like zinc oxide ointment or other various products containing zinc oxide might be helpful for diaper dermatitis in mild cases.
