A. No powder till 1 yr of age Always better to avoid. Bcz it blocks the sweat gland pores and increase chances of rashes and infections. Can use good quality baby lotion ans moisturizer. Keep ur baby well hydrated

A. Always better to give diaper free time every day in a day Its always better to avoid diaper, use cotton langot at home if possible If rash persistant then Use rashfree cream over rash area 3 -4 times a day. It will help. If no responce then need consultation with nearest pediatrician

A. Change diaper every 3 hrs or when soiled Take some Luke warm water and clean the diaper area try to make sure that u add baby wash to it Always make sure that u r applying powder before u put on diaper to avoid friction between diaper n skin that is main cause of rash is friction between skin and diaper U can use propyderm NF cream over rash or red area Usage of coconut oil n powder is also useful U can put any diaper depends upon ur choice Tape style are best suited for babies who can not move much Pant style for the one who can't stay at one place
