RE:Boy moms- skin irritation? (Pic included)
Fellow boy mom: It just looks like irritation to me, I usually throw some Vaseline on it and it goes away fairly quickly. Could try zinc oxide cream or let him go without a diaper for a while. I also like baking soda baths. I hate those sneaky no smelling poopies! Gets me every time!

RE:Skin rash
I took my LO in for a very similar looking rash today, was told it’s eczema, to lotion after bath and use Aquaphor and hydrocortisone cream if it’s bad. It went from behind her knees all the way up to her diaper and down to her ankles in the last two weeks. Looks terrible in the bath and if she’s warm.

MIL used paint instead of diaper cream
I can’t believe this happened, I am still in shock. Typing this while my son is napping on me. Yes, I already called poison control and they said to just wash it off thoroughly and monitor for rashes. MIL is helping me with caring for my 18mo because I just had knee surgery (for the 3rd time). This morning, she offered to change his diaper and I said yes so I could get some chores done. About an hour later, my son got sticky playing with jam so I took him to the shower to rinse him off. That’s when I saw a weird substance all around his diaper area. I immediately rinsed it off thoroughly. I asked her what she had put on him, and she said she used the diaper cream from a small blue container. It was sample paint. English is not her first language but come on. It smells like paint when opened and is clearly paint. It says paint on the container… I just don’t know what to think. I don’t know how to react. I have just been focusing on my kid since then and I don’t know if I can even speak to her. I’m in shock. Edit: Thank you to everyone for their input. She definitely did not do it on purpose and it was an honest mistake. MIL is not a native English speaker but is proficient enough to be employed in healthcare here. I just mentioned the second language part because maybe that’s why the word “paint” didn’t raise any alarms for her at a glance. The paint can was in the closet of the room where his changing table is. I would let him hold it and look at it while I changed him sometimes because he was enamored by it, and it would prevent him from flipping and alligatoring while I changed him. Which is why it was even in the vicinity. I just didn’t foresee this happening, and it was irresponsible on my end. I am angry at myself for letting this happen. Initially I was shocked at the situation, as you can see in my verbiage on the post. Thanks again for reading. Edit #2: First off, this mishap was entirely my fault. Second, I definitely overreacted. I apologized to MIL for my mistake and we went on with our day. Thank you everyone for your inputs. submitted by /u/just_another_ag to r/toddlers [link] [comments]

Zinc Diaper Cream before after
The product I decided on was Badger Diaper Rash Cream. I had read on this subreddit peoples experience with zinc oxide and decided to give zinc a try! 10 year, type 2 Rosacea sufferer here with redness, flares, papules and pustules. I was having an extreme issue with what I think was a damaged skin barrier on top of the existing rosacea. This cream helped me in one night. I hope this can help someone else as well! Active Diaper Cream Ingredient: USP Zinc Oxide 10% Other Ingredients: Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Beeswax, Organic Calendula Extract & Sunflower Vitamin E Smell: Very faint earthy shea butter smell. I'm sensitive to smells and it's honestly barely there. Consistency: Thick but can be rubbed in easily. White cast: No. But I am fair skin. The cream does soak in nicely so I don't think it'd be an issue. Moisturizing: Yes! I haven't been using a stand alone moisturizer, just this. The first ingredient is sunflower oil. from Google: "Sunflower oil is considered non-comedogenic, with a low comedogenic rating of 0–1, meaning it is unlikely to clog pores or cause acne. Rich in linoleic acid, it is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and helps strengthen the skin barrier, making it suitable for most skin types, including dry, oily, and acne-prone skin." My routine: Morning and Night: wash face, no toner and apply diaper cream to cheeks, nose, chin and under chin by sides of neck. I sometimes use it on my forehead. I may start using toner again because I honestly miss it! I do wear concealer over the cream and it goes on just fine. I blend with a makeup brush. submitted by /u/icedcoffee82 to r/Rosacea [link] [comments]

Any other current/former cake decorators struggle with the advice to "apply it thicker than you'd frost a cake" when it comes to diaper cream?
Good news is my son has never had a diaper rash. Bad news is I spent like $100s on diaper cream before realizing I was going crazy overboard with the amount to use. So I knew that for overnights its good to use diaper cream preventatively once they're out of the super newborn phase and sleeping longer stretches. I also have a kid who doesn't seem to mind poopy butt so we couldn't guarantee he'd let us know if there's an issue. So yeah, got some butt paste and looked up how to use it and kept seeing the phrase "thicker than you'd frost a cake" and I'm like damn, that seems like a lot but okay. I kept not understanding why we had to go that hard since 90% of ended up on the diaper but whatever. Fast forward, I'm at the pediatrician for a skin issue and diaper cream comes up. It's eczema, his diaper area isn't affected but she wanted to make sure we were using it since it's clear LO has sensitive skin. I got yep, using it, but hey I have a question about how much. There's some back and forth and she says the phrase "you know, thicker than you'd frost a cake" and I go okay, but I'm going through like 1/3 of a tube everytime I do that. She asks "what like a little tube?" And I go no, and pull out the big 4oz tube. She asks me to show her how much I'm using on the back of my hand so I get the spatula, plop out some cream, and lay on a big thick idk, 3/8" layer? Normally I'd shoot for 1/4" if frosting a cake. Her eyes were SO wide. She then proceeded to show me what looked like maybe 1/8" thick, a little less. Oh. That makes a lot more sense. So yeah - if you have professional experience frosting cakes, ignore that advice. You're looking at "thicker than a crumb coat" amount. I don't know what sort of cakes people are frosting or how it was universally understood what amount it meant but now you know. submitted by /u/mapotoful to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

I hate that diaper cream works
I tried the zinc diaper cream for my flairs last night because i’ve been seeing it all over the sub recently. it worked amazingly! I’m grateful to have a new way to manage my flairs, i feel like my clindamycin hasn’t been doing much for me recently. Unfortunately this stuff STINKS! no one else has mentioned the smell !!! it has a similar sickly sweetness to antifreeze, it’s awful. i was gagging waking up in the middle of the night to find my room filled with the scent, and after showering this morning it still is kind of stuck to my skin. I just used a generic one from equate, are there any other brands that smell even a little better? or at least different? I love that it works and would like to be able to use it more, but as it stands i don’t think i’d honestly be able to because of how overwhelming the scent is 😭. submitted by /u/barcodes_and_beauty to r/Hidradenitis [link] [comments]

What is the nicest thing you've ever done that no one knows about?
I am not The OOP, OOP is u/WarToad What is the nicest thing you've ever done that no one knows about? Originally posted to r/AskReddit TRIGGER WARNING: Teen pregnancy, struggles with poverty MOOD SPOILER: heartwarming What is the nicest thing you've ever done that no one knows about? Dec 22, 2009 I was day tripping to Vancouver from Seattle and stopped in for lunch at a little cafe. From my window I saw a young teenage girl out in the cold, squatted down in a closed up businesses doorway, holding a small bundle in her arms. She was panhandling, people were mostly walking by ignoring her. She looked just broken. I finished up my meal and went outside, went through my wallet and thought I'd give her $5 for some food. I got up to her and she was sobbing, she looked like she was 14-15. And that bundle in her arms was a baby wrapped up. I felt like I just got punched in the chest. She looked up putting on a game face and asked for any change, I asked her if she's like some lunch. Right next door was a small quick-Trip type grocery store, I got a can of formula for the baby (very young, maybe 2-3 months old.), and took her back to the cafe though I'd just eaten. She was very thankful, got a burger and just inhaled it. Got her some pie and ice cream. She opened up and we talked. She was 15, got pregnant, parents were angry and she was fighting with them. She ran away. She's been gone almost 1 full year. I asked her if she's like to go home and she got silent. I coaxed her, she said her parents wouldn't want her back. I coaxed further, she admitted she stole 5k in cash from her Dad. Turns out 5k doesn't last long at all and the streets are tough on a 15 year old. Very tough. She did want to go back, but she was afraid no one wanted her back after what she did. We talked more, I wanted her to use my phone to call home but she wouldn't. I told her I'd call and see if her folks wanted to talk to her, she hesitated and gave bad excuses but eventually agreed. She dialed the number and I took the phone, her Mom picked up and I said hello. Awkwardly introduced myself and said her daughter would like to speak to her, silence, and I heard crying. Gave the phone to the girl and she was just quiet listening to her Mom cry, and then said hello. And she cried. They talked, she gave the phone back to me, I talked to her Mom some more. I drove her down to the bus station and bought her a bus ticket home. Gave her $100 cash for incidentals, and some formula, diapers, wipes, snacks for the road. Got to the bus, and she just cried saying thank you over and over. I gave her a kiss on the forehead and a hug, kissed her baby, and she got on the bus. I get a chistmas card every year from her. She's 21 now and in college. Her name is Makayla and her baby was Joe. I've never really told anyone about this. I just feel good knowing I did something good in this world. Maybe it'll make up for the things I've f-ed up. Update - What's your proudest or most-upvoted comment? Feb 12, 2010 (nearly 2 months later) I had no idea this would take off like wildfire. It was years ago, I'd never really talked about it, and it was just kind of special to me. I really hadn't thought about it much since then and was remembering more than anything. I jotted it down in a thread and got slammed with envelopes. Hundreds and hundreds of messages and private messages. One afternoon I finally did something right. An after-the-fact follow-up... I got Makayla's Christmas card this year and gave her a call. She's doing great in school, another couple years left since she started late and works part time too.(Bank Teller) Joe is a lean mean advanced reading machine. Reading books 3-4 years above his age.(7 now.) And he draws Wolverine comics. "He's Canadian, you know that?" Favorite. Hero. Ever. He wants to grow up to "be a comic book maker and pizzas." Keep the dream, Joe. Keep the dream! Her Mom and Dad would like to ccome visit me and my little girl.(I've never met them, but her Dad sends me bottles of homemade whiskey... which actually is surprisingly good.) Which has lead to in interesting quandry. Anonomously I told Reddit. I've never told anyone in the real world. I didn't tell anyone when I came home. I just sat on it. Then a day or two went by. How do you bring it up now? 'Oh, by the way, last weekend... " Then a week, a month. By then I was just comfortable with is as a private memory. Now here I am with a new wife and family... whom I've never told. It's just something I hold as my own. And now Makayla's parents want to visit. How do I just throw out.. 'Hey, Sweetie. I know this is something I should have told you years ago, but..." I dunno. Life moves in mysterious ways.

If a baby has severe diaper rash and has diaper cream on, do you wipe off all the cream every diaper change and put fresh cream on?
I should know this. But I don't. I am an infant teacher and recently we had a baby with the WORST diaper rash I've ever seen. Bleeding and so raw. Everytime I would wipe her she would cry so much and blood would be on the wipe. Should I just wipe a little bit to get only the pee and lather on more diaper cream on top of the old stuff? Or wipe of all the old diaper cream before putting more on? Ah I feel so dumb for not knowing this and I'm too afraid to ask anyone at my job because I should know this. (This obviously does not apply to a BM diaper) Edit: Thank you SO much for all the suggestions. I will definitely be taking these and talking to her mom.

AITAH for going forward and refilling the divorce procedures, after my wife canceled now that she is getting the help she needs for her post partum depression.
Don't want this on my main account. I 29m was in a relationship with my STBX wife 28f for 8 years. Everthing was what i will describe as nearly perfect. Small argument here and there but nothing really significant or relationship altering. All of that stopped 13 month ago after she got pregnant. The child wasn't a surprise as we were trying for a baby. I seriously don't know what went wrong but around the 4 month mark my wife completely made a 180 switch from the kind, carring and sweet women she use to be to a total tyrant i know it's bad to speak of someone like that but that is the best way to describe it. I am completely honest when i say me breathing was an issue for her, waking me up at 2-3 in the morning because she wanted something specific and become verbally abusive when i refused to drive 40 minutes to get her an ice-cream she was craving. She went on a tyrade because she wanted chick fil A on a sunday and the place was close. Calling me a useless husband, everything under the sun, wasn't allowed to sleep in the same bed as her then being pissed at me in the morning for not sleeping in the same bed as her, cleaning the house because it's to loud then not cleaning the house, cooking something she doesn't want anymore but requested it earlier. I bared everything, every insults, all the verbal abuse. I never raised my voice towards her during this time. I begged her to get help, talk to a doctor, therapist, her mother anyone but she refused and that just made things worse because apparently i called her crazy for asking her to get help. I went with her to the doctor one time and when i brought up the mood swing the hell i was in for a whole week wasn't worth it. Talking to her mother as well, she tried to help but my wife will act overly sweet and she made it seem that i was the crazy one untill her mother left and it was back to hell for me, even the camara footage i have of her going off she made it seem out of context and i was made out to be the monster by everyone for not doing more or enough. she made it seem that everytime she got angry was in response to something i did. Me sleeping at 4am and she not being able to open a can of peaches was my fault earning me a can against the chest while sleeping. 4 month ago she gave birth, wasn't a easy birth but i was hopeful that things will somewhat return to normal but that is when the post partum depression kicked in. I again tried to help, i really did suggestions, research, talking to a therapon my own to find better ways to help her but everything i did just made things worse. I was against her with everything calling her a shit wife, bad mother even though those words never left my mouth. Everything blew up when she actively became physically violent. My last straw was when she smashed a coffee cup on my head when i walked out the room after an small argument because i took to long to bring her the cup of coffee. i was busy with our son changing his diaper. This was the first time in 8 years that i rised my voice at her and told her we are done, she can pack her shit and move the fuck out of the house. She went to her parents house, she wanted to take our son but i didn't allow that, when she said she will call the cops i pointed to the camara in the hall way and told her she is welcome to try as the camara caught it all. A week later i was served with divorce papers, i wanted to file but didn't have time with work and carring for our son. I was to busy. 3 weeks back after i got back from work my in laws were waiting for me, apparently her parents got her to see a therapist after they threatened to kick her out because she became as abusive to them as she was to me. They finally believe me and that i wasn't making things up. They gave me a letter from my wife before the left. The letter basically says the following without writting everything out. She is sorry for the way she treated me all those months, she doesn't know why she did it and has no excuse, after her parents threatened to kick her out and she saw a therapist and psychiatrist she is better now that she is on medication to help her. In the letter she says she stopped the divorce proceedings and want to give us another try. I haven't responded to her letter and told my lawyer to proceed with the divorce proceedings. I gave the letter to her as well as it contains alot of detail of what she did as well as her admitting to the verbal abuse, it's not just my words anymore especially for the things that happened in public the videos i have of it as well and the video of her breaking the coffee cup on my head with the hospital visit for the stitches and burn marks from the hot coffee. I am told I'm the asshole as she is getting the help she needs now and that i should forgive her and give her another chance, i should do it to keep our family together, if i truly love her, i will be able to forgive her for the things she did while not in her right mind. I am a monster because i have no idea what she went through. My things is why didn't she take the help i suggested, i did everything humanely possible to help her and she refused, she made me out to be this evil person and everything i didn't wasn't right, good enough, not enough, nothing. Even when i removed myself from the situation that was also wrong. I have more than enough evidence to get full custody of our son and a prenup that protects everything i have including the house. AITAH for refusing to continue in this relationship and preceding with the divorce. Edit to add. I see it already in the notification. i am going for full custody of my son. My lawyer says there is no sustainties but she can't see any reason a judge would not grant me full custody of my son. Just to add as well, my son is mine. Did go through my wife messages and everything just before she gave birth for this exact reason. No deleted messages i could find, weird expenses, out of context messages or anything like that. Test was done and he is mine. submitted by /u/ThrowRAevilhusband to r/AITAH [link] [comments]

[Personal] After years and years of trying "everything", the answer was at the drugstore for $7 all along.
I spent SO many years touting the benefit of natural and DIY skincare products only. The stuff I applied to my face in the past makes me cringe now (think lemon juice, sugar scrubs, Dr. Bronners as a face wash, undiluted essential oils....) My face has been red for years. I had no idea what a skin barrier was or that I'd nuked mine for YEARS. I just thought I had a red face since I've always struggled with acne. I've spent $1000 over the past year and a half on fancy serums, lotions, cica products that were supposed to be holy grails for barrier repair. One was a $115 serum I saved up for that, in the end, did absolutely nothing for me. I guess my skin was too far gone for any of that to work because many of those products are dust collectors now. Two nights ago I watched a YouTube video and this dermatologist was talking about how she bastes herself with Triple Paste nappy cream and it all made sense! The zinc, beeswax, lanolin, cholesterol.... Maybe this is it? I put it on for the first time last night and woke up this morning without a red face for the first time in probably six years. I did my routine and ended it with the nappy cream and not only did the redness go away, but a huge zit I had on my temple is 1/3 of the size it was yesterday. IN ONE DAY!! So now I feel like a dolt, because I spent years and a ton of money at fancy boutiques and whatnot trying to find my holy Grail product and in the end, I walked by it every time I went to the drug store. Edit: The product again is Triple Paste Diaper Cream. submitted by /u/AC_Slaughter to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]

Diaper Rash Cream on face? 🧴🤔 ✨️RESULTS AFTER 2 DAYS!✨️
If you're on skincare TikTok you may have seen the "Diaper Rash Cream Face Basting" hack that was posted by an aesthetician/Dermatologist (I forget which). She claims it helps with facial inflamation/acne due to the zinc that is found in most diaper creams (i will post her tiktok link below). Well I was desperate enough to try it because the redness on my skin has been really upsetting me. I tried it for about 5 days altogether and have to say the first 2 days were AMAZING and I will be using this again when I need it.I used the "Healed by the Ocean" eczema cream underneath which I applied first on damp skin, then a layer of the "Hypoallergenic Aquaphor Diaper Rash Cream" (the one that comes in a purple box). For me personally it began to dry me out after day 3ish so I would definitely reccomend using moisturizer underneath ESPECIALLY if you have dry skin like me. 🌵🏜🐫 I did use it again last night over top of several other products in place of an "occlusive" such as aquaphor (something that basically creates a barrier so your skin care underneath stays put and does its job). I woke up with pretty smooth and hydrated skin this morning! 😀 It was still red but I just bought my first toner so I'm going to be trying that out underneath my moisturizer and serums tonight with the diaper rash cream on top since i have a full tube and it seems to be doing positive things for my skin. ❤️ If the redness still doesn't go away I think im going to try some other zinc products because WOW. ✨️🤩 ⬇️(The Dermatologist who recommended this)⬇️ https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRTdYqXF/ submitted by /u/Helenabriar to r/SkincareAddicts [link] [comments]

A primer on diaper creams
I’m prepping for baby #2 and just had a flashback on how confused I was on this first time around, so thought I’d make a post to help out any other confused first time parents. There are basically three basic types of diaper cream. FWIW, I ended up using all three. Ointment. Often when people mention Aquaphor, this is what they usually mean (which was confusing to be because Aquaphor also has the two other types). It is basically Vaseline, so it’s non-medicated, and is useful for creating a physical barrier to protect baby’s skin. Regular strength/daily defense diaper cream. So regular diaper cream uses zinc oxide to help heal diaper rash. So this is typically 13-15% zinc oxide, and if your kid is prone to diaper rash is good for everyday use to help prevent and treat diaper rash. Some brands also have a “3-in-1” or “triple paste” but it’s usually the same thing. Maximum strength/fast relief diaper cream. 40% zinc oxide. I typically saved this for when I had a particularly bad or stubborn rash. A few other tips for diaper rash: - the butt spatula I found helpful to keep hands clean, since the creams and pastes are very sticky, and designed to not wipe off easily. Also gets right into the butt crack easily, lol - if you are breastfeeding, breastmilk has antibacterial properties and a milk bath (bath with a few oz of milk dumped in) seemed to help a lot when we had a bad rash. I saved extra milk that maybe sat out too long to drink again, and threw it in the freezer to use for milk baths. - baby wipes can irritate babies skin when they have diaper rash so if you can wash them off in the sink with water that seemed to help as well. Hope this helps someone out there! submitted by /u/Lopsided-Student-300 to r/BabyBumps [link] [comments]

Husband thought diaper cream amount was like caulking and I’m dying 🤣🤣🤣
This happened a few weeks ago and I cannot stop laughing! My husband used diaper cream for the first time on our daughter. I guess I should have explained the quantity to use beforehand. He filled her crack right up the brim with diaper cream (using like 1/4 of the tube) and then realized that probably wasn’t correct. There was so much diaper cream and i couldn’t stop laughing. It was like her bum was perfectly caulked! Anyways I have since bought the bum spatula and he uses the correct amount! Happy Friday everyone! :) submitted by /u/czayez to r/beyondthebump [link] [comments]

Oh no, your baby has acne. What should you do? Wait it out? Introduce a cleaning routine? Apply a topical cream? Rub a urine-soaked diaper in your baby's face?

Does anyone else use diaper rash cream on their face?
I used this in the desperate moments of a seasonal allergy outbreak And it magically cleared my skin! I put a thick layer on, tissued it off after about 15 minutes and applied makeup as normal. My makeup sat perfectly for the rest of the day and seemed more toned than usual. What's the deal here?! It was "extra strength" at 40% zinc oxide. What are the risks/benefits/other things I should keep in mind? Thanks guys! submitted by /u/mannequinskywalker02 to r/SkincareAddiction [link] [comments]
