How About A Little Vaseline?


Recently, little man has developed a rash around his chin and one of his cheeks that just won't seem to go away. It doesn't seem to bother him. It does, however, become bright red sometimes and can look ugly. I looked up some different possible causes and the most likely cause is teething. With teething comes lots and lots of saliva. We definitely see a lot anyway. 
I asked some different moms, past and present, what they would do. Some moms suggested Lotrimin. I'm not sure that I'm comfortable putting a chemical meant to dry up athletes foot that close to little man's mouth. The other suggestion was Vaseline. I decided to try this and it worked like a charm. I didn't even layer it on thick. It was barely noticeable. I'm sure seeing how this works I would probably be able to also use Aquaphor.
