Hey Ernie, PC said something about you doing something to keep the poop off of Etta's bottom. I come and go from the board so missed that post. What did you do/use?

Replied to your thread, but one of H's colleagues suggested cutting wax paper or parchment to fit inside the diaper with a little hole around the butthole. I cream her up good, then the paper sort of sticks to the cream, and keeps some of the muck off the skin. Hope it helps!

Thanks. We've been doing the cream with the cornstarch over it, but it sucks because it seems like it still all comes off on the diaper immediately, so that sounds like it will help. So do you kind of stick it on and "mold" it to her butt to stick to as much area as possible? Or do you just set it in the diaper?

I bet plastic wrap would work but keep in mind it will cling more and breathe less. Though at this point, it seems keeping poo off to prevent further damage is more important than airing out.
