So, now it seems Andy is allergic to Huggies diapers too
He's only 10 months old. So far he has a severe milk protein allergy which started out with bloody stool and him being super fussy eating. When he went on Neocate he got so constipated he couldn't go for a month. They had us trying everything and nothing worked.
One of the side effects from the milk protein allergy was SEVERE dermatitis. To the point where people in public make a big deal out of it. Only a steriod creme works for it.
His digestive system seems to be so immature he gags on everything, even those Gerber puffs and refuses all baby foods.
And now I realize that his severe diaper rash was due to the Huggies overnights we've been using the past 2 weeks. I just kept thinking it was a flare-up of the dermatitis, but last night I accidently put him in a Pampers at night and his skin was no where near as red.
I feel like I can't do anything right with him.

Re: So, now it seems Andy is allergic to Huggies diapers too
I'm so sorry But you're doing all the right things. Look at how well you know your little guy. I never would have figured out if Ava was reacting to a diaper! Now you know, and you can take care of it

It's so hard when they're little and have so many issues. You're doing a great job though, don't doubt yourself at all.

Thanks everyone. I was feeling really crappy yesterday, like I should have figured out sooner it was the diapers. Oh well, what can you do, right?

Don't feel bad! Knowing what is causing something with them is a crapshoot sometimes! Have you tried any of the organic diapers? Maybe those would work for him.

I'm sorry. I know it's frustrating.
Did you think about trying the G Diapers or the Seventh Generation ones? Steven can only use Pampers OR Luvs. I think it has to do with the chemicals that Huggies puts on the diaper.
