Diaper Rash Treatment and Remedies From Natural Household Items

Diaper rash treatment and remedies from natural household items, and we all know how diaper rash can be miserable for a baby. And when your baby is miserable, so are you! There are a great many diaper rash remedies on the market, many of them quite expensive. In addition, some of them are ineffective. There are, however, some diaper rash remedies that you can fix at home.

1. Air Time

Lack of circulation is a major contributor to diaper rash. After the morning diaper change, wash baby’s bottom with lukewarm water and pat dry with a very soft towel.

This Mother Could Use a Babymoon!

Have you heard of a babymoon? You will have heard of a honeymoon, but what about the former? A honeymoon is understood to be a time of intimacy and closeness between a bride and groom, and babymoons are also a time of intimacy and closeness.

Breast Milk Healing Powers

Breast Milk healing powers are alot, and it is truly absolutely amazing stuff. It can’t be duplicated in formulas, and it has components whose relevance modern science has still not figured out. You may have heard that it is healthy for your baby, but did you know it could also heal?

Breast milk has antibacterial properties. Thus, it can be applied to various types of topical and even internal infections. Here are some things to think about regarding the healing power of this excellent resource.

* Eye or eyelid infections in baby, child or adult can be cleared up with it. A few drops in each eye several times a day will fight the infection.

* Ear infections have been effectively treated with it. Treat the milk like an antibiotic ear drop (which it is!) – a few drops in each ear several times a day. Continue Reading Breast Milk Healing Powers Here

Cloth slings have been used by women all over the world for millennia. Continue Reading The Benefits of Baby Carrier Slings Here
