Diaper Rash Cream

[Guhlia]

Does anyone have any recommendations on a GOOD gluten free diaper rash cream? I'm looking more for a good barrier than I am for a soothing product. We use rashy cream with every diaper change so our daughter doesn't get diaper rash. I currently use Equate diaper rash cream, but I have no idea if its gluten free or not.

Also, any recommendations on great cloth diapers to try? I don't mind making the investment if they actually work. It would be nice to cut long term costs wherever possible. Disposable diapers are an easy place to save a few bucks.

I had bought cloth diapers from Absolutely Diapers for my daughter. She hated them so I went on to use disposable diapers.

For the ointment we have used two things. The first is baby bottom better.....it's about $10 per little container but will last 1-2 months per. It's available from absolutely diapers. I think their website is hipbaby.com. The other we use is David Hoskings Soothing face & body balm. It's expensive but will last a long time. It works super good. Each container is good for 2 years and would probably last around 1 year. I believe it was around $60-70. It's from Australia. Ingredients: Chlorhexidine, lanolin, zinc oxide, propylene glycol. They also have a nappy rash cream according to the notes on the container.

I had ordered this online but don't have the link on hand. It's David Hosking's Pharmacy. Phone is +61 3 9379 7797.

We use Burt's Bees diaper rash cream. It is gluten-free, and it smells so much better than the other kinds.
