Daughter Has Extra Sensitive Skin

I have a one year old daughter who within the past few months has been getting really bad diaper rash. I do everything I can possibly think of. I lether air out, change her very quickly, using Zinc ointment and Johnson's baby powder with cornstarch, I also wipe her at every change, and after bath time take the blow dryer out and gently use the blow dryer. Some days are better than others,like it will disappear and then a few days later come back. I just don't know what else to do. About 4 months ago she had a yeast infection and my pedi...

Help! Screaming Baby! What to Eat When Nursing?

I'm dyin' here! My six-week-old is on Zantac for reflux, but she still cries...and cries and cries. For up to an hour and a half (usually right after I feed her.) I'm nursing exclusively - no formula. I give her Mylicon for gas, Maalox for indigestion. Nothing seems to be working.

I'm afraid to let her "cry it out" in her crib because it seems to hurt her worse when she's lying flat. People have told me what not to eat while I'm...

Unfortunately, at the doctor today I found out that he still has thrush. Now he has a prescription for Diflucan. I am checking with my doctor to see if I should continue with Lotrimin or if she will recommend something else. I am hoping this will knock it out. However, I am getting really paranoid about where thrush is lurking! I know I need to boil my breast pump...

Little White Bumps on My Son's Body...

Hi Ladies, This isn't an urgent issue (or I'd be at the doctor), but I am curious to know if this sounds familiar to anyone. In the past couple of days, my 5yo son has developed these little white/pink, hard bumps or nodules on his body. He has about 5 or six of them, on his hands, forearm, knee, and foot. They are hard but smooth (so not crusty or scaley), and feel more pebble-like than a simple pimple. He only has a few, so they aren't what I would consider a "rash," but they have all appeared in the last couple days. They almost look...
