Aquaphor, Eczema and Bum Genius Diapers

My son has severe eczema on his entire body and sometimes we are applying Aquaphor 3 times (or more) a day. I was told by Bum Genius reps that this cream would affect the absorbency of my Bum Genius diapers. I have been using Pampers but really want to cloth diaper. My son does not have a reaction to the diapers. It is more the issue of the diapers having a reaction to the creams I am using on his skin. Any suggestions? 1.

Baby Eczema Keeps Coming Back with a Vengence. Help!

My baby has pretty severe eczema on her face! the doc told me to use Hydrocortizone for flare ups and keep her skin hydrated all the time.

I am going to adjust the soap - or rather stop all together and see what happens. I am already using "free" detergents and such.

Aquaphor & Mylanta for Diaper Rash????

I read in either Parents or Babytalk that you can use a mixture of Eucerin Aquaphor and Mylanta on diaper rash and that it works great. Has anyone ever tried this? I'm about at my wits end with a never ending diaper rash on my daughter. It will go away for a day or two and then comes right back.

Bad Baby Eczema

Hi moms. Does anyone have advice about baby eczema? My 9 month old seems to have a really bad case. He scratches until he bleeds behind his knees. The eczema affects his entire body. I have slathered Aquaphor on several times a day, tried a humidifier, and use loose comfy clothes. I use Burts Bees shampoo twice a week on him and just let the suds run over his body. I think the itching is starting to affect his sleep. He's a good baby but has been fussy and crying more in the crib. He will fall asleep after Ibprofen so Im thinking...
