I'd be crying like Evelyn too if I had such bad diaper rash!
Jackson never had anything like it so I was a bit unprepared for it – our go to Weleda Diaper care I'd always used for Jackson wasn't helping the incredibly angry and chapped redness that both girls developed almost overnight a few days ago…
It took me a day or so to put two and two together, but the onset coincided EXACTLY with us running out of the Costco Kirkland brand wipes and starting to use Huggies "sensitive" wipes that we picked up at the drugstore (because who has time to go to Costco on even a semi-regular basis anymore?)
I noticed once we started using them how incredibly wet the Huggies wipes were.. like so wet they would never let the baby's bottom dry off completely before putting on another diaper. Unless you have like all the time in the world and want to tempt fate by hanging out for a few minutes sans diaper. But whoever has the time to do that CLEARLY does not have twins, and most certainly doesn't have a twin named Trini who likes to save her pee for the exact moment that I am changing her.
Within 24 hours of using the Huggies wipes the rash came on fast and furious and the Weleda Diaper care wasn't curbing it. Having finally figured out the cause, we switched back to the Kirkland brand wipes but still needed a CURE for the raging rash.
Thanks to a desperate plea for advice on FB about which cream to use for severe diaper rash, we ran out and bought Triple Cream which in combination with the wipes change has healed them in less than 48 hours.
The purpose of this post is two-fold: a) Avoid the Huggies sensitive wipes like the plague and b) Triple paste is a god-send for sore bottoms.. I will now never be without it!
