in a really distress mood rite now cos lil zahra is being attacked by nappy rash!!it has been going on and off for a a few days, but only mild rashes. but dunno y, started last nite, it got worse n zahra's nappy area turned really bright red!. poor baby, she cried everytime i change her nappy. must be really painful...ouch!. went to skin specialist, but he was not available since its the weekend here in trg on friday. have to go back tomorrow morning. in the meantime, i slap on some bud's organic baby bum balm on her nappy area. works like a charm before, but doesnt seems to work this time. i dunno what went wrong as zahra never had this kind of rashes before. there's a few things that i suspect be the cause of it:
- we recently switch diaper wipes brand. before this, i just used the anakku and pigeon brand. most of them we received as gifts, anyway. so we'd ran out of stock, so i went n bought johnson n johnson's since on the packaging it reads 'as pure as water' or something like that. i ony use diaper wipes during nighttime nappy change. for daytime, i only use the kitchen sink..hehe
- my MIL recently handwashed zahra's cloth diapers eventhough i told her a lot of times not to. she didnt wash the inserts, only the diapers. i suspect she didnt use any detergent cos they still smell a bit. i didnt bother to wash them again cos i didnt want her to feel bad if she finds out. but her intention was good though. she was just trying to help lighten my burden. esp since my maid is gone..
- maybe i didnt wash the diaper properly?but i wash them like my usual routine..hmmm
so tomorrow we'll be going back to the clinic, hope everything goes well. i'll update again on the result ya
