Being a parent, you try to comfort your baby with all the efforts and labour possible. From the best diaper, toys, food, health care, and so much more, you as parents take care of it all. At times when doing the diaper duty, you witness something uncanny. An unpleasant rash near your baby’s buttocks and inner thigh. Note that these rashes are quite painful and irritating for your child even though it is natural. Follow the basic steps and know the reasons for rashes.
Causes of Rashes
1) It is common between the ages of 8–12 months because that is when your baby eats solid food and experiences a changed bowel movement.
2) Baby’s skin is different from adult skin. So. when the stool and urine come in contact with the baby’s sensitive skin, then they might feel irritated. This problem requires not much struggle because the Doobidoo Baby Pant removes all moisture to keep the baby rash free.
3) Various detergents, soaps, baby oil and allergic food is a reason for baby’s rashes.
How to Prevent Rashes
1) Breathing Area- Give your child some breathing space when changing diapers. Give it as long as possible.
2) Protective Layer- Products like oil, cream petroleum jelly act as a protective layer between your baby’s urine/stool and the diaper. It gives time to recover the damaged cells. Thus, it is recommended to apply those products during every diaper change
3) Cleansing- Clean the baby’s diaper area when changing the diaper or bathing him. Make sure to choose the correct wipes, soaps, lotion and avoid rubbing the baby’s body as that is one of the leading causes of rashes.
4) Diaper- Avoid using cloth diapers as it may trigger factors like stool/ urine irritation. Avoid using diapers as their elastic may disturb and cause redness near your baby’s waist. Opt for Baby Pants as they are easy to wear, remove and offer comfort from any chances of rashes.
