don't put powder on baby's bottom/privates, esp pag nakadiaper. hindi nagiging effective ang absorbency ng diaper with the presence of powder. kaya nagkakaroon ng nappy rash yung bata kasi, yung ihi na dapat mapunta sa diaper, sinisipsip ng powder, at naiiwan na nakadikit sa balat ng bata. Regular diaper changes, nappy rash ointment (desitin or drapolene) and keeping the groin area dry and well-aired lalo pag mainit yung panahon. i'd advise against petroleum jelly muna, kasi naiiwan yung moisture sa diaper, which can worsen the rash (mag cause ng bacterial growth dun sa rash, warranting topical antibiotics).
commando muna yung bata (no humour intended) kahit few hours during the day (or after bathing), whilst the rash is at its worst..
