A. Hello You can use any good brand diaper like pampers premium care or mamy poko or huggies. Avoid all day long use If rashes appear Avoid using diapers till rashes heal completely. Giving diaper free time in between the usage of diapers is a must to prevent occurrence of rashes. Use the right sized diaper that is as per baby weight. It should not be tight or loose to leak the contents Change diapers every three to four hours and immediately if soiled by poop Apply some coconut oil or any diaper rash cream like himalaya or b4nappy on the rashes and leave it open to air. Try using cotton nappies sometimes as cotton is a skin friendly , breathable material and lessens the chances of rashes as it has to be changed immediately. Avoid too much rubbing the delicate skin with wet wipes or cloth and try to wash area often with water and pat dry after every poop . To prevent UTI keep changing diapers regularly and wash from front to back Before putting on diapers ensure that the area is completely dry. If wet first pat dry. And apply a little coconut oil on the area.
