Preventing Baby Diaper Rash - Some useful Tips

I have summarised a few useful tips you can apply to prevent/control the amelioration of Diaper rash:

• Babies bodies should be completely cleansed by washing them with warm water and mild soap on a daily basis, in addition make sure to carefully clean your baby's bottom between diaper changes, use plain warm (not hot) water with or without a very mild soap.
• After bathing, make sure to pat your baby's bottom dry with a towel rather than scrubbing it (scrubbing can irritate your baby's sensitive skin), and avoid drying them with scented drying sheets which may increase the risk of allergic reactions.
• Any cleaning materials that you use on your child's skin need to be mild to ensure that there are no allergic reactions or other skin problems caused by the cleaning materials, try to avoid baby wipes that are scented or include alcohol as they may dry out or irritate the skin more.
• Your baby should be checked on a quarterly basis to ensure that the nappies are clean and dry as prolonged caress with wet nappies is one of the quickest ways for your child to get skin rashes and irritations, change a diaper as soon as it is wet or soiled, in addition to this, it is good practise to change the diaper before putting your baby down after a feed, or just before sleep.
• Let him or her go without a diaper as much as possible, this allows his/her skin to breathe, air to circulate, and reduces disagreement and skin caress with irritants. You will see that most babies enjoy the freedom of being naked too. Let your baby lay on top of a few diapering cloths. (If you have a boy, place other cloth diaper over his penis when he is on his back so he does not spray you.) allow your baby's skin to dry completely before you put on other diaper - the key to preventing diaper rash is to keep your baby's diaper area clean, cool and dry.
• Put the diaper on loosely to forestall chafing, diapers that are too tight do not allow adequate air in and tend to rub and irritate the baby's waist or thighs, also avoid plastic or rubber pants over the diaper - they do not allow adequate air to pass through.
• A soft hanger-on or a flannel can be used to wipe down your baby's body, bear in mind that some fabrics can cause allergic reactions, synthetic fibers are more likely to cause irritations than natural fibers.

Baby Diapers

Contrary to normal belief the occurrence of diaper rash is not an indication of neglect, poor hygiene or childcare skills on the part of the parent (although there are the few exceptions), with truthful concentration and implementing some of the deterrent measures mentioned above, you can either forestall or keep Diaper Rash under control.
