Diaper rash

[Englishgirl]

Well both my DD's had a diaper rash so I put them in sposies for a day or 2 and it went away. We were at a festival over the weekend so more sposies and yesterday I put them back in cloth diapers. Willow already has a sore bum. I'm wondering whether it could be thrush and if so, if I wash all the nappies at 90C, and put the girls in sposies until they're clear would that get rid of it?

If it went away while they were in 'sposies, it's almost certainly the diapers. Go ahead and strip the diapers, and give it a try! I'm actually doing this tonight- boiling Gianna's diapers in the pressure cooker, because she's got a rash that just won't go away, and it started when I washed her diapers in NY, in a machine that had "regular" detergent built up in the dispenser. I hope it works!
