Cradle Cap, Nappy Rash and The Dreaded 'N' Word |

I was just reading another article online about different rashes and how to identify and treat them which has prompted me to write my three little pieces of advice which have worked for me.
Cradle cap, if your little one has this on their scalp, as my second daughter 
did, just gently apply some vaseline and leave overnight. In the morning just bathe gently in warm water .
Nappy Rash : Cornflour! One of the BEST pieces of advice I was given as a first time mum. One of my girlfriends daughter suffered from this constantly and she was prescribed all sorts of creams and lotions until she was given the cornflour tip. I would just use an empty herb shaker jar and voila, refillable talc replacement.
Now to everyones favourite, the dreaded 'N' (dare I say it....NO) word. I learnt very quickly, through another of my girlfriends first daughter, that if that's all they hear, then of course that's what you're going to get back so some of my alternatives are, stop, wait, later and maybe.
