Wipes gives baby diaper rash

Sometimes wipes will give your newborn diaper rash and for a newborn it is no fun. With my first baby the nurse gave us the best advice, she said to use a warm wash clothes to wipe his bottom with, she said this would help avoid getting diaper rash and it worked. We used wash clothes for the first three weeks and our son never got a rash. Once we went to wipes he got a small one after awhile so we switched back to the wash clothes and the rash went away. It was the best advice we got in the hospital. If you are using wipes right away, get the sensitive ones or the all natural ones, they don’t have as many harsh chemicals in them.
