So Sophia was diaper-rash-from-hell child. She had diaper rash for 8 months solid - and we were seeing a pediatrician every 2 weeks for it. I've run the gauntlet of diaper creams.
There are 2 things I will use on her butt:
plain old zinc
petroleum jelly
In the end, they were the only things that ever worked.
With regards to bottles, We used the playtex bag-in-bottle system, which also helps prevent gas. They use a disposable plastic bottle liner that is BPA free. Avent also has a bag-in-bottle system now, which is safe too, and the Avent nipples are the ones lactation consultants really love. If you are super concerned, born free makes a BPA-free plastic bottle that is affordable as well.
