I'm wondering if anybody has any answers for me. My 5 month old has had a constant battle with a rash on her little bottom. Particularly where the elastic touches her skin. I'm pretty sure she is alergic to latex so I have been keeping that completely away from her. I have tried almost everything. I have tried washing the cloth diapers with baking soda, line dried them to let the sun bleach them, tried different laundry detergents, and have tried wool covers. I switched to wool because I read all about them and heard they breathe much better and don't keep moisture locked in. But, she had a reaction to that as well. Her rash looks red, splotchy, and sometimes the area can raise. Where elastic touches her it gets very red and the skin is raised with welts. When she was very tiny we used disposable because I didn't have any covers that fit her tiny body. She did not have a rash then. We used cloth diapers with our first child and she never had the problems are little one is having. We would like to use cloth diapers if at all possible so if anyone might have an alternative answer to using disposables we sure would appreciate it. Thank you!
