I have to tell you, this week, on my journey through parenthood, I'm most thankful for a small tube of genius. If you have a little one, you completely get my drift.
Okay, I promised I'd never publicly write about any of Daniel's issues, but this time I think I can let it by. Only for the sake of other expectant or first-time parents who may be reading... My little one didn't get a diaper rash this week; in fact, it was more like a neck rash that looked EXACTLY like diaper rash. I'm guessing the moisture (a.k.a. excessive amounts of teething drool) was catching under his chin, and from wearing bibs non-stop, it just didn't have room/time to heal itself. What did I use? Desitin. It's good stuff.
What Is It?
I'll let Desitin explain itself, "...the only leading brand that contains the maximum level of zinc oxide, immediately forming a protective barrier to help heal and soothe diaper rash discomfort. Our thick, rich, hypoallergenic, pediatrician-tested formula provides overnight relief for baby’s tender skin. There’s no stronger treatment available without a prescription." What that means in "mommy" terms is this: when your little one's rear (or any other area) is looking as red as Clifford the Big Red Dog, you're more than likely dealing with a diaper rash. But guess what? You can find these "rashes" in other places where moisture backs up and causes irritation...
Where Can I Get It?
You can find Desitin at any pharmacy, grocery store, or market in the baby section near diapers and wipes.
How Much Is It?
You won't care how much it costs when you see how well it works!
What I've Learned
You won't believe what I found when I was researching this... Turns out that Desitin offers other products! Ones that are designed specifically for rapid relief, overnight protection, and multi-purpose treatments... You know, multi-purpose, as in the rash around Daniel's neck!
