My Witts End

Need help!!!!!  Doll has the worst diaper rash I’ve ever seen.  Its bleeding in two spots and the rest of her front and back are covered in white blisters.  i can’t tell if its from teething or from the stomach bug we had.  Either way she is miserable.  Somebody tell me what to do, please.

Y’all take care and hug those babies tight.

Aww…I dont know how to get rid of a diaper rash, but I hope she feels better soon! I do a lot of babysitting for younger children and I know it makes them feel terrible at the least. Take care Love

Only thing I can think of is bathe her every night, making sure those areas are very clean, then put Aveeno Diaper Rash Cream on her very few hours.

White blisters? Are you sure its diaper rash? poor girl! Lots of air time and warm bath with no bubble bath or harsh soap is all I can tell you.

Yea, like Lillake said, lots of air time. I read someone’s diary before and their baby had horrible diaper rash. They gave the baby a bath and then didn’t put a diaper on them – just let it air out overnight. They put plastic sheets out so it wouldn’t get too gross. Maybe if you don’t want to leave it all night, then leave it as long as possible before bedtime? Just a thought. 🙂

My son had one because of too much juice. We put desitin creamy on it every time we changed him & gave him a bath 3 times a day. It was cleared up in a relatively short amount of time. He was to the point of bleeding, but not white blisters, you might need to take her to the doctor, she might have had an allergic reaction to something & they might be able to perscribe something to make it go away.

You might want to take her to the doctor over the blisters. My son had the bleeding once. We just put desitin on it and let him go without a diaper alot air helps tons. Also instead of using baby wipes we used wash cloths and just washed them out because baby wipes make it worse.

Start changing her diapers more often, and use vasaline or baby rash ointment, and, last of all, sprinkle with baby starch (talc-free).

Aww poor thing, I am not sure. I hope it gets better!
