Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
My PED always told me just powder (if anything) unless there's a rash.
I do put Triple Paste on every night in case she poos.

Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
I don't use anything unless there is a rash and then I load her up with Desitin Creamy. Except for the overnight...I always use diaper cream.

I put A&D ointment on after poopie diaper changes and at bedtime. Ped said no need otherwise.
Same here.
It's more preventative in my eyes.

Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
Thanks for all the replies!!! I think that after his current diaper rash clears up we might start to move towards reducing the amount of cream we use.
I figure we might as well cut back since he's getting older - before we know it we'll be potty training and no need for cream then.
Thanks again!

Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
hardly ever. I have probably applied it about 10 times in 9 months. I only apply it when her area is a little red.
When she was a newborn I used vaseline at every change but I cant really remember when I stopped.
ETA - she's never had a diaper rash (fingers crossed it stays this way!!)

Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
We used it after every diaper change for and especailly right before bed, sicne he would be in the diaper for a long period of time.
And I think that this is the reason (knock on wood) DS has Never had a diaper rash or any irritation of any kind.
I figure better safe than sorry.

I would only apply it when Jared had a rash.
Same here. Or when I feel like they are going to get one.

Re: Diaper Cream/Ointment Question
DD is 15 months and I still use A&D after every diaper change and use balmex for overnight. I want DD to feel as comfy as possible. She has sensitive skin and can become irritated easily.
