Quoting Kari:

Because it comes and goes it does seem like it may be something she is using
(bubble bath??) or eating. Another option is to try an all natural product such as Arbonne's ABC line. This line is very helpful with irritated skin as well as eczema. Check out www.arbonne.com or e-mail me at kbergsten@cox.net if you have questions.

Quoting Kate:

Is it only in her "diaper" area? Is it possible she is not wiping thoroughly after using the bathroom, causing a rash? Do you use scented toilet paper or colored that could irritate her? Have you changed laundry detergents at all? Has she eaten any new foods recently? If you can figure out what's irritating her, you can get rid of it.

Try a natural oil, like olive oil or sweet almond oil. Have her apply this with a cotton ball after she uses the bathroom, and especially at night. Wash only every 2 - 3 days and then with very mild soap so it doesn't dry her skin. Hopefully that will help.



Hi Kate yes its only  round the front area havent changed anything dont use scented paper just plain white.



This has been going on for a while now it comes and goes dont know what sets it off.



Ill get some oil and try that and if it works youll be a life saver



thanks again for the suggestion x
