  • Newborn diaper rash tip I wish someone had told me sooner 👶When my baby had diaper rash, I assumed more diaper cream was the answer. But I learned something simple that made a big difference.Before applying diaper cream, make sure your baby's skin is completely dry.Diaper creams create a moisture barrier, but if the skin is damp, that moisture can get trapped and make irritation worse.What helped us:
• Gently clean during diaper changes
• Pat the skin dry (especially in folds)
• Let it air dry for a few seconds
• Then apply diaper creamSuch a small step, but it can really help during those newborn weeks.I shared the full explanation and diaper routine on the blog 💛
