non to these you mentioned are good in terms of the ingredients, I use Yuka app to check all baby products. I will add some screenshots for you below the message. I personally use Neals Yard barrier cream, it does a good job. But also, I noticed that my boy gets a bit of a rash after I use water wipes, but he is good after I use just warm water and cotton pads.

My friend who works in care told me to use Sudocrem when their bum is sore and to clean any remaining cream away with cotton wool pad with almond oil on it at the next change before reapplying the Sudocrem. Just dabbing, not rubbing. That and a bit of nappy free time has worked really well for my now three year old and I’m doing it again with my newborn.

Bepanthen is good as a general barrier cream then if my son’s bottom starts to look red (depending how bad) I use sudocrem but metanium is the big guns and helps heal it quickly. It does stain and is hard to get off. We use aldi nappies and sensitive wipes but sometimes if I use wipes for all changes he starts to go red. My son was premature so since birth we have a bottle warmer on his dresser to warm water up quickly. We then use the warm water and cotton wool balls or pads to clean him and this also helps when he becomes red. We also use the bottle warmer to have warm water for his morning wash. We live in a rural village and have LPG gas tank in the ground so electric is cheaper for us than running the tap for ages. We have a jug of cold water and temper it to the right temperature if we’ve overheated the water.

With my little one i used sudocrem on them every nappy change when they were tiny and she never got nappy rash. I found the other nappy creams rubbish xx

We use the metanium barrier cream at every change and then the yellow one if she ever gets sore, which very very rarely happens, only when she had a bad belly. The barrier cream at every change seems to have really worked for us x

I have a few creams! We have a couple of barrier creams as a preventative, and then a few that zre for treating a rash if she gets one x

Metanium is a bit strong for regular cream (having worked in a nursery and changed like 15 in 30 minutes). We had a few kids where it appeared to CAUSE rashes. I'll be using bepanthen or sudocrem.

I have used Childs farm nappy cream since birth and ( touch wood) baby hasn’t had any rashes so far x

I actually found Vaseline the best. I do think every child if different though. I never rated sudocrem x

I swear by sudocream
