Water wipes

I’ve been using water wipes but went through a stage where she had redness around 7/8 days I think it was from the constant dirty nappies at the beginning

did the redness go? Or did you use anything? I have nappy rash cream I’m using but with the water wipes it comes straight off

I used nappy cream at bedtime and then again once the next day and by the afternoon it was gone, she’s 3 weeks now and I’ve not had any issues since

We used water wipes from early on and I do regret it, my lo got very sore, we changed nappy brand and went back to cotton wool and water and it's loads better. I'm just not sure if it's the wipes or not. Will try them again in a couple weeks x

We are using water wipes also regret this as he is really sore now however he was in the nicu and they asked for us to start using wipes x

Make sure you dry them after using the wipes, and then apply your nappy/barrier cream.

I love Aquaphor for nappy rash cream but also hear metanium is amazing for nappy rash. When she doesn’t have nappy rash, we use Weleda calendula barrier cream.

Use cotton wool and water instead as it can be more gentle. And allow as much nappy free time each day as you can to allow the skin to air. Metanium is great for nappy rash. There is a blue prevention cream and yellow nappy rash cream.
