Hi Moms!
I recently bought a new baby powder and didn't notice that it was liquid, it's like lotion and the directions say to rub it on baby's bottom. I have never seen or heard of anything like it so I'm wondering if anyone out there has used it and if it works just as well as the powder kind or if I should return it and get the regular kind. Please advise. Thanks in advance! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you to and your families =)
Thank you Moms for all the advise! I decided to not use the powder kind anymore and either stick to the liquid kind or just to the rash cream. I wish you all a very happy new year =)
Used it and LOVED it! No messy powder getting everywhere and it worked great. I used the Huggies brand with my daughter.
I took a baby class while I was pregnant through the hospital. As the other moms mentioned, the instructor said do not use baby powder around your baby because they can inhale it. She said if you have baby powder, give it to your husband for his shoes (basically it has no use for a baby). I am not familiar about the liquid. Maybe the industry is trying to make a safer product.

We're really not supposed to use baby powder any more anyway, because babies can breathe in the powder and it's not good for them. Never seen the liquid stuff, but frankly, I never used anything besides regular diaper cream. (Always at night, because they're in a wet diaper the longest. This seemed to prevent almost all rashes.) Good luck.
Hi H., I know you've been told, but baby powder is a big no-no, the baby inhales it and it causes long term issues. Most pediatrician's recommend not using it. Try desitin if your baby has diaper rash or continue with the lotion. Merry Christmas.
I have a little girl and my pediatrician told me to never use any kind of powder on her. It can lead to ppotential infections. So I never used. This may not be helpful but thought I would mention it. Congratulations on your baby!
I would think it would be better than powder. I never used powder because I was concerned about the fine powder getting inhaled in my baby's lungs so I would try this new product and see how it works for you.
