Spending time outside of a diaper to air out his booty is great. I also dump breast milk into his bath and let him hang out and play. Then air dry after bath. I lather baby in coconut oil all over as our wind down routine, too, so some coconut oil gets in his butt too.

Layer aquaphor and then desitin very liberally on a dry booty then diaper

Sudocrem!

Been using it since baby was a newborn and it's been so good!

Vaseline as a preventative, zinc based cream as a treatment. A wet and dry cloth instead of baby wipes really helps too. Skin should be bone dry before cream is applied.

We use Aquaphor, which I see you mentioned. Are you making sure whatever you're using is being applied to dry skin? We always use the clean diaper to fan dry everything prior to applying the Aquaphor. This helps so much.

boudreaux butt paste ... I swear by this stuff!

Make sure skin is completely dry before applying any topicals. thickly layer the paste to create a barrier. pat dont rub to clean. size up on diaper if possible.

Stop using wipes and switch to cloth with water.

Zinc cream, naked baby time, and milk baths if you can

Any kind of zinc cream plus as much naked time as possible, if possible. During naked time I'd actually do less or no cream to let it dry out even better.

Struggled with rash for weeks! Turns out the wipes were causing it. We used pampers sensitive and switched to Huggies sensitive and rash is gone. Other things that helped were airing out after change and patting dry before putting on triple paste. Would also rinse bottom with warm water under faucet and air dry once per day. Good luck!

I don't know of any power. Aside from do not use anything with talcum powder in it. I know of a cream though. Parent's Choice has a good diaper rash cream. I know you are asking for baby powder, but that's all I know. Hope this sort of helps.

We use A&D.

It's best practice to dry baby's skin before putting ointment on. Be forewarned, if you use the Bourdeox (idr spelling) Butt Paste, if baby has a rash and you don't dry their skin before adding ointment the rash will get so much worse! We found out the hard way. Decided to discontinue using that brand. We have had really good experience with A&D. We use the preventative ointment if baby looks a little pink. The treatment ointment if it's an actual rash. It works within a day usually.

Every boomer told me to use A+D Ointment. When my baby got diaper rash it was the only one that truly helped.

Earth mama and weleda, aquaphor during the meconium stage in the very beginning.

Calmoseptine

Triple paste!

Dr. Bordeaux's butt paste at every diaper change. Worked like a charm!

Make sure it is completely aerated before placing on a new diaper. Use a blow dryer on cool air if need be. Vaseline works better than any powder cream!! There's a reason they put it on circumcision and skin conditions.

Never rub just pat and always use A&D preventive before rash and A&D treatment for rashes.

Mom of a two year old and the only tiny rash he had was from Covid Poops.

Only thing that helped my baby was switching to dairy free milk it was like an almost overnight improvement. Expensive formula!! But ended up being the only thing that helped

Try anti fungal topical cream like clotrimazole. You can get it over the counter in pharmacies. In my experience if the rash is persistent, keep spreading and gets worst it may be a sign of yeast infection. 

I would also do a wash over the sink with a gentle non-soap base cleanser instead of wiping during nappy change. As it keeps the diaper area cleaner and gentler on the skin. And gently pat with a soft towel to dry

I agree with the other comment try sudocream. It works wonders. My Dr reccomended to only use a pea size amount for a palm size area. 

Also in my experience the baby powder make the rash worst. Maybe give it a break for few days and see if its improved.

Calsomeptine + aquaphor (to make it spread 😅). I swear this worked the best and still does for my very rashy 2 year old niece!

Also hosing them off > wiping during the sensitive times

Triple paste! LOAD it up. Also take a break from wipes and use diapering cream (Mustela Liniment is great) with cotton pads. You can clean the load of it off with toilet paper and finish the clean up with the liniment.

Once the skin barrier is broken, A&D ointment is really the best. Then use any 40% zinc oxide to maintain!

I’d make sure it isn’t yeast infection. It’s really common for them to get yeast infections in antibiotics

Desitin extra strength 40% zinc is magic!

We use aquaphor with zinc. They have a regular version and one specifically for when baby has a bad rash, both have worked well for us. In healthcare we use zinc when people start to get skin breakdown from excess moisture and it works really well!

My baby’s pediatrician recommended getting a small container with warm water and adding a little bit of cetaphil for sensitive skin into the water and use that to clean babies butt everytime they poop. I guess it really helps get every poop particle and it was the only thing that helped my daughter’s diaper rashes on top of the usual ointment. I also let air dry and add a little bit of baby powder (contains zinc) just to absorb any extra moisture. Hope your LO rash gets better soon!!! I know how stressful it can be

we use sudocrem for our LO's rashes.. definitely better than mustela based on our experience.. as for diapers, we use ultrathin ones during daytime and thicker ones for bedtime..

As someone who used to deal with diaper rash constantly with her newborn. 1. I’m so sorry you’re going through this it’s so frustrating and 2. I’ve tried just about everything.

The top 3 things that consistently work:

1. Go up a diaper size. Bacteria and yeast loooove tight moist areas, so giving that cute butt more breathing room helps A LOT
2. Get yourself 3M Cavilon Barrier Film spray and spray on a dry butt before applying any diaper cream. Do this with the first diaper change of the morning and last diaper change before bed.
3. Always do a combo of aquaphor AND a thick barrier cream together.

We used aquaphor max strength (only during rash flare ups), water wipes, dry wipes, and Huggies little movers diapers. No more butt rashes since using dry wipes. That's literally the only difference in our diaper change routine. They work so much better than a little fan or cotton cloth.

I absolutely recommend noodle and boo , you can find it on Amazon. And it smells AMAZING . I've used it with my last two babies and plan on using it again. While it is pricier than Johnson and Johnson and, I'd say similar proves to honest brand. But I promise it smells so Amazing you will want to smell your baby all day long . My babies also have sensitive skin and had absolutely no issues, so that's always a plus.

Also, I haven't used the lavender scent only the original. So can't speak for the lavender.

Good luck 😊
