want to use cloth naps but nappyrash is a prob..

[happytobehere]

Can u help?

I use babylove nappies. it is only these or huggies that dont give ds a rash..

I want 2 use cloth but they give a nappy rash :no: it seems that only nappies that are ultra absorbant seem to work...

has anyone had this issue? and what did u do?

I so love cloth but dont want to have to do all the powder and nappy rash creams..... is there another way?

sorry if this is confusing

Some fabrics keep the moisture away from bubs bottom which really lowers the risk of a rash.

I believe both fleece and microfleece are very popular liners for that. :)

thanks NBC but now im gonna sound really silly but what sort of liners do u mean? like those blue and white striped disposable thingys from the supermarket?

I wasnt actually using liners, lol, is it something u r spose to do?

You can buy cloth liners to put in cloth nappies.
I don't think anyone truly gets away from nappy rash every now and then but if you make sure you change bub more frequently it can almost be avoided.
You can try it and if it doesnt work, go back to disposables

What sort of cloth nappies are you using? I'm sensing you're using terry flats which if they don't have a liner will not keep baby dry.

If you wanted to go down the path of modern cloth nappies :cloud9: pick one that has microfleece as the liner (the layer that goes next to baby's skin) as the properties of this fabric keep baby dry.

If you want to use terry flats I would recommend going to spotlight and buying some microfleece and cutting up some liners. Cut rectangular or hour glass shapes and pop in the nappy between bub's legs so they keep dry. You don't need to sew them as microfleece doesn't fray :smiliedance:

Obviously lots of nappy changes too.

HTH :)
