When is a baby likely to suffer?

There are times when your little one is more vulnerable to nappy rash, usually when:

  • They’re premature
  • They’re teething
  • They’re unwell or recovering from a vaccination
  • They’re taking antibiotics; these can upset the delicate balance in the body and make thrush infections more likely
  • Their skin is sensitive, or there’s eczema in the family
  • They have a tummy upset
  • Their diet has changed, particularly during weaning or changing from the breast to the bottle
