Bepanthen Ointment (Nappy Rash)
2009 July 21
During my pregnancy, I received a small tube of Bepanthen Ointment in a goodie bag. I tried a larger tube on Baby V since it is free from colourant, fragrance and preservative.
As Baby V is on cloth diapers, he only has minor rashes when poo is left on his diaper for too long. These are usually cleared up within a day by the ointment. As a precaution, I apply a thin layer of ointment on him at every diaper change.
It has worked well for him and does not affect the absorbency of his cloth diapers.
Pros:
- Prevents nappy rashes
- Clears any rash relatively quickly
- Cloth diaper-friendly
Cons:
- 50g tube is too big and messy; I prefer the 30g tube.
- Leaves a greyish stain on his cloth diapers
