This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boudreaux's Butt Paste. All opinions are 100% mine.
When I was pregnant with Caleb, I asked everyone for advice. I asked one friend to count how many diapers she used in one day with her infant, I asked another to write down her son's nap schedule, and I asked everyone for reviews. I had people suggested everything from shampoo or toenail clippers.
When it came to health care and hygiene items, I went straight to the experts. Pediatricians and Pediatric nurses. One thing that was the same across the board, no matter who I asked was that Boudreaux's Butt Paste was the best product for the diaper area. It was recommended to me by my pediatrician, the nurses in the maternity ward, and even by my midwife. They all said the same thing, "The name is funny, but you'll love it because it works!"
"It works" was the clincher. Every person would throw in their own 2 cents of course. "It doesn't stink," "I saw it on Oprah," and "It cleans off easily" were pretty common. But the one thing that every person said without fail was, "It works".
When it comes to your little babies most sensitive areas, you want to know that the product you are using is going to work to soothe and heal them, and you want it to work FAST! Boudreaux's Butt Paste does just that, it works and it works fast. Not only did it sooth and heal diaper rash, but it helped to prevent diaper rash as well. If Caleb drank a lot of water before bed, I would smear it on him at bedtime. That way, if he filled his diaper in his sleep and didn't wake up, I knew that his skin would be protected through the night... of course he usually woke up and let me know all about his wet diaper!
I also used Boudreaux's Butt Paste on hot Summer days. I could only just imagine what it would be like to be a cute, sweet, innocent little baby on a 100 degree day. That diaper is meant to hold in moisture and they don't seem to be very breathable. I would put Boudreaux's Butt Paste on Caleb to protect him from heat rash or diaper rash from sweat.
Long car rides is another time I would use Boudreaux's Butt Paste. If he had to sit in the car seat for a long time, I was worried that he would sweat or get uncomfortable in his diaper. I would usually change him every hour or so, even if his diaper was dry, just to freshen him up. The idea of sitting around in a diaper sounds very unpleasant to me, and I wanted to keep him as clean, fresh, and comfortable as possible. Boudreaux's Butt Paste helped me to do that effectively.
