Nappy cream

Postby clairegrace » Sun Sep 12, 2010 6:37 pm

My LO's a little red at the moment, combination of teeth and lots of poos!!

Are there any nappy creams that can be used with cloth and where would I buy it from??

Ta xx :wink:

I think nappy balms are ok - anything that is absorbed by the skin, rather than sitting on the skin acting as a barrier.

Sheepish Grins, Natural Essences etc are cloth friendly. Millie's Nappies and other WAHM stores stock them.

Mothercare do a similar product, it's their Natural Softie nappy balm (brown tube with green text etc) if you want a high street alternative. In the mean time, try vaseline...

What about using paper or cloth liners to protect your nappy from the cream as well?

Thanks, have a Mothercare nearby, will go for a nosy tomorrow before I try ordering off the net :hug:

I use fleece liners anyway but was worried that sudocrem or similar would make the wee roll off rather than go through and would cause leaks. :(

i use earth friendly baby soothing chamomile lotion on t at nearly every nappy change. works wonders for a red bum in this house, and the odd bit of nappy chaff.x
