What to use on yeast diaper rash?

Question

So I think my baby has a diaper rash that's caused by yeast because it's not going away after two days of heavily putting diaper cream on him!! Is there anything y'all recommend to treat it? Thanks!

Answer

Definitely an anti-fungal and don’t use wipes for diaper changes until it clears up. Just use wet paper towels or cloths and make sure he is completely dry. Also, a bath with baking soda (no soap) will help a lot! My son had several bad rashes and the combination of all these things really helped!

I’d talk to your pediatrician. If it’s really from yeast they’ll have to give you a prescription anti-fungal
