When your baby has a diaper rash, there are several things to consider. It’s one thing to treat the rash effectively, but it’s another thing to prevent the rash. |

While diapers were a great invention, they have contributed to what is now the most common skin disorder for babies. Diaper rash is a broad label for what can be attributed to friction, allergies, seborrhea, psoriasis, intertrigo, or irritants. The biggest problem is wetness, which provides an excellent environment for microorganisms, such as yeast.
If your child has frequent serious rashes, the diapers may be the source. One mom, Tereson, felt the need for a better diaper for her sensitive skinned, rash prone, baby boy. Tereson's baby, Eden, had severe eczema and was allergic to chemicals in disposables. Yet, regular cloth diapers kept him wet and with severe rash. After an exhaustive search, and a disappointing trial period using the "best" cloth and disposable diapering products, Tereson decided to develop a diaper for her baby that satisfied them both. It had to keep her baby's skin dry, it had to be leak proof, and it had to be easy to care for, clean and use. The end result? Fuzzi Bunz diapers.
For those of you who have worn fitness clothes made of CoolMax®, you are aware of how the fabric wicks moisture away from the body to the surface of the garment, where it can evaporate quickly. Fuzzi Bunz work the same way. The modern microfiber material keeps baby extremely dry, wicking all moisture to the inner core of the diaper, where an insert soaks up all wetness. After making Fuzzi Bunz for her own son, and seeing how well they worked, she began making them for her internet friends who also cloth diapered their babies. Her friends were astounded with what they received. Fuzzi Bunz have rapidly become one of the most popular diapers today. Besides saving your baby from rashes, Fuzzi Bunz will save you money and help the environment too!
Now there are many brands of cloth diapers that are effective in keeping your baby dry. Besides Fuzzi Bunz, other excellent pocket cloth diapers include Swaddlebees, Mommy's Touch and Happy Heiny's.
