Your Baby's Skin is Vulnerable While skin is the first line of defense and protects everything it covers, there are certain conditions that can irritate your baby's skin, not matter how careful you are. Your baby's skin can be vulnerable to prickly heat, cradle cap, eczema and, of course, nappy rash.
Nappy Rash - a Common Baby Skin Problem One of the most common, persistent problems your baby will face during their first 2 years of life is nappy rash. The most common causes of nappy rash include wetness, soiling and teething. It can be quite painful and irritating for your baby and if left untreated it can spread and cause their delicate skin to break.
Nappy Rash is Easy to Spot You will know it first by its location. The area around the nappy and upper thighs will be slightly red and possibly warm. The skin may feel rough and hot. Other forms of nappy rash may show signs of blisters and pimples.

Desitin creates a long lasting barrier that seals out wetness, safeguards unbroken skin and promotes the healing of broken skin.
