Who has time for baby books? This is my poor attempt to keep track of the happenings of our life as our family grows, with a few of my thoughts seasoned in along the way.

OH, i have just the recipe :)
Just eyeball it ...
about 2 tablespoons or so of aquaphor.
about 1 tablespoon or so maalox.
It's pretty hard to mix so what I did was put it in a little ziploc baggie and mashed it around real good, it mixes better when it warms up too! Snip a hole out of one of the corners and squeeze it into a designated butt-cream container, or directly on his bottom. :)
Ava's pediatrician also suggested putting the maalox on first with a cotton ball, letting it dry, then slathering aquaphor on top of that. I think either way worked equally as good. :)
Another product that works MIRACLES is Triple Paste. Super thick and really soothing on baby bums. It's kinda pricey, but amazing stuff--its near all the other baby butt creams at any store.
Another thing that seemed to help was pouring some baking soda (about 2 tablespoonfuls) into her bath water. I was told to use cool water and not warm...hated to do that, but she didn't seem to mind!
Hope these tips help! Diaper rashes are no fun!!
