JD,


You can actually find a list of cloth-friendly creams here: http://www.fluffloveuniversity.com/how- ... eam-index/
From that list you might be able to find one that is 40 percent zinc oxide. Calmoseptine is on the list as a cloth frinedly diaper cream and i have had GREAT results using it. Perhaps it would work for you?

Peace out!

Rob

Rob,

Thank you for the excellent reference! Very interesting indeed.

I'm a huge advocate for cloth diapers, I use them exclusively when I'm at home. I always us the disposable diaper liners. I purchase them by the roll. Because they are only 7.5 inches wide I actually lay they width wise instead of length wise. I'll overlap 3 of them covering about have the diaper in the back then put a 4th one in the middle. I have mild IBS so I don't mess in every cloth diaper I wear. I also use my darker (stained/older) baby prefolds in the back under the liners in case I have a softer poo. Even with that, I don't get much on the cloth diaper if any. This saves time on extensive washing. I also don't throw them in the toilet which you can do. If it's a firm poo I will drop it into the toilet then bag the liners up. This process works well for me and maybe for some others.

I wanted to revive this thread and say that I have found that overlaying two ordinary cotton handkerchiefs on top of the cloth diaper (well forward) before putting it on largely solves the problem of keeping zinc oxide rash creams and pastes from getting on the diaper itself. The older, more used, and more threadbare the handkerchiefs are, the better. Upon removing the wet diaper the zinc oxide is easy to see on the handkerchiefs. I just wash the handkerchiefs along with the diaper.
