A. Hi, kindly mention contents of desiring. It can be mild steroid and should never be used. Instead Sebamed diaper rash cream contains zinc which acts as barrier. Wait for potty training till 18 months at least. Early training can cause anxiety problems.

A. Potty training can be started when the baby learns to sit on it own. Sooner you start giving training the better are the results. But it needs Kot if effort and patience. I am not aware about the latest researches on this but atleast from my personal experience I can tell you that it is better if you start early. I have started giving training to my son when he he was 8 months and he took a whole month to learn the entire process, since then he is potty trained and never do it in diapers. now at 22 months we don't use diaper at all

A. Ezinapi cream is effective for rashes. Also aloe Vera gel is effective. Apply coconut oil every time when you put diaper. Allow diaper free time everyday least few hours. Avoid diapers if there are rashes and let it heal.
