hi ladies,
hope someone can offer some advice!!!
DD gets reoccuring nappy rash/allergic reaction, particularly with Easyfits and Pop Ins (we don't use PUL wraps as they leave red marks on her thighs). doctor said she had thrush and an allergic reaction on her thighs and cheeks from the Easyfits. the rash is a perculiar shape and the reddest part is where the bamboo has been. her skin is okay, where the fleece liner has been. (i don't think it's a bamboo reaction as we use fitted nappies usually without any bother). i have been washing the nappies in Daz Bio.
now, i am using fitteds and wool until i sort out what the problem is...
however, DD goes to nursery 4 days a week and we were using Easyfits at nursery but now i have her in fitteds and wool so that her rash can clear, and nursery doesn't like it... Nursery rang me today to say that the fitted nappy had leaked through to the wool and that DD was leaving wet marks on the carpet. they said that they can't have wee on the carpet or else it will have to be professionally cleaned and that they would recommend using a PUL wrap. my questions are:
1) i know the longies i sent DD to nursery in probably need relanolising but nursery are now very sceptical of wool and i don't want DD leaking on their carpet or else they will complain again. would it be possible to use a double layer of wool, to make sure 100% that there are no leaks? i mean, would it be effective to use both a wool soaker and some longies over a fitted nappy, to create a double barrier? i could also use felted longies but i don't have many pairs of those.
2) does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing DD's allergy?
hopeful...
