Do LUVS cause diaper rash?

7:58 AM

Have any of you out there experience LUVS diapers causing a bad diaper rash?  Norah has such a bad rash she won't sit down!  I feel so bad for her.  It is really red and it looks like little blisters all over.  I have been putting Desitin on her often, but it seems to still be getting worse.  She does have very bad diarrhea and that is when I noticed it starting.  I keep her diaper changed and the medication on...but I wonder if the diapers are causing it to not heal?  I've never used them before and I bought the diapers because they were on sale.  Any helpful ideas to help me get rid of this nasty rash?  Norah and I would greatly appreciate it!  Thanks!!

    Thankfully Jacob hasn't had an diaper rashes yet, but I have found with other babies that A&D Ointment works really well. Adam hates the smell of it, but that is what we used when Jacob was circumcised and it really helped. You would hope a diaper couldn't cause a rash, but who knows?!? Hope Norah's behind feels better soon.

    I don't think it is the diapers. I know when my kids had diarrhea, as soon as it hit their bottom they were very red which turned into a terrible diaper rash. I couldn't change their diapers fast enough. Keep doing what you are doing and just try to change her diaper as soon as you can. Sound weird but I got this "utter cream" at the feed store for my kids diaper rash. It worked really well but I can't think of the name of it.

    It sounds like she may have a yeast infection....that used to happen to both kennedy and reagan. you should take her to the dr. they will give you something to clear it up in a day or two.

    I must agree, I don't think its the Luvs. Samy is Miss Sensitive and we've used Luvs for most of her life. Diarhea however gives her super diaper rash. Butt Paste has worked the best for us.
