Cili has her first diaper rash. What kind of cream should I be using? Her pediatrician recommended A&D but everything online says it doesn't work with cloth diapers. I've been using Earth Mama Angel Baby but it doesn't seem to be doing anything to treat the rash.
I bought CA baby b/c I planned to CD and that's worked fine. Also coconut oil. But, he's never had a bad diaper rash. He just gets a little red sometimes and then I use one if those.
I've used California baby too. Or put him in a prefold with no cover or a wool cover and changed him really often. He's only had little rashes in his rolls though lol.
I've tried at least 6 different diaper creams. I disliked most because of the smell or the inability to spread somewhat easily. I would recommend the Aveeno diaper cream. Good amount of zinc, no smell, and decent spreadability/stickiness. Tip - put the cream on the diaper then pat onto her butt...that way you don't have get your hands all gloppy.
I love this. It does eventually separate, but we've used the same tube since he was born and that didn't happen till summer (so 9ish months). It smells nice, c works great and goes in easily. Requires a liner. www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000V3MFUY/ref=pd_aw_sims_1?pi=SY115&simLd=1
