I've been battling a rash on my 15 month old for almost a month now. It started with one patch right under his parts, and spread farther down his bum. I tried every type of cloth diaper safe cream that usually works for him, and it just kept getting worse,---so I switched to disposables with not-so-friendly creams, washed my diapers in hot water, with oxyclean and gso, and when the rash looked like it was gone, I switched back to my cloth diapers. The rash came back immediately! (within 2 diaper changes!) So, I just switched back to disposables and heavy creams, and washed all of my diapers in hot water, with gso, and about 1/2 cup of bleach, dried them all on high and sunned them all. The rash is still on his bum, so I'm still using creams and disposables. . . but how long should I keep doing that before switching back to cloth? Anything special I should do to get rid of the rash? Anything else I need to do with my diapers? Will this work to get rid of it? It's been such a discouraging battle this month.
(Btw, I think it is yeast because it won't go away, and I was on antibiotics for 3 weeks and was breastfeeding). Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
