If you're a parent or caregiver, you know how important it is to protect your little one's sensitive skin from irritation and diaper rash. Diaper cream is a common solution to this problem, but what happens when the cream won't stay on?

There are a few reasons why diaper cream might not stay on your baby's skin, including:

1. Moisture: If your baby's skin is wet or damp, the diaper cream may not adhere properly. Make sure to thoroughly dry your baby's skin before applying the cream.
2. Movement: Babies are constantly moving, and this can cause the diaper cream to rub off. Try applying the cream in a thicker layer or consider using a cream with a thicker consistency.
3. Poor quality cream: Not all diaper creams are created equal. If you find that your current cream isn't staying on, try a different brand or a diaper paste to make sure the product stays on.  Staying power equals healing power.  No parent needs a diaper cream that wipes away as soon as you fasten your baby’s diaper.

So, what can you do to ensure that your baby's diaper cream stays put? Here are a few tips:

1. Apply the cream in a thick layer: A thicker layer of cream will be less likely to rub off. Make sure to cover the entire diaper area, including the creases and folds.  Think of icing a cake to ensure
2. Use a diaper paste with a thicker consistency: Some creams are thinner and may not stay on as well. Look for a cream with a thicker, more paste-like consistency.
3. Wait a few minutes before putting on a diaper: Give the cream time to absorb into your baby's skin before putting on a diaper. This will help the cream stay in place.
4. Try a different brand or type of cream: If you've tried everything and your current cream still won't stay on, try a different brand or type of cream. Some creams are formulated to stay on longer or adhere better to the skin.

In conclusion, keeping your baby's skin protected and healthy is important, and diaper cream can be a valuable tool in achieving this. If you're struggling with diaper cream that won't stay on, try the tips mentioned above and don't hesitate to consult with your pediatrician or healthcare provider for additional advice.
