RashStick Diaper Rash Ointment

[Andrews Mom]

Just wondering if anyone has tried the RashStick Diaper Rash ointment (looks like a deodorant stick)? DS has never had diaper rash (knock on wood :) ) but I usually put a little diaper rash cream on his bottom before bed since he's in the same diaper for so long. I've been using Desitin Creamy but saw the RashStick in the store and was wondering how well it worked.

Thanks for your opinions,

Mindy

I wouldn't try it. I'd be worried about tush germs ending up on the stick. Yuck :P

I keep one in the diaperbag to use when we're out so you don't get your fingers as dirty. It does have anti-bacterial stuff in it, so you don't have to worry about germs staying on the stick. It's been very convenient to use, but I can't tell you how effective it would be on clearing up a rash.

DD just had a bad rash, and the generic desitin-like cream from Safeway cleared up. The real desitin didn't work for her!
