I have two sons. One is only three weeks old. The other is a little over a year old. They are both in diapers. I use balmex diaper rash cream on my children. I use the cream all the time, not just when they have diaper rash. It works to treat diaper rash, but it also prevents it from occurring. I recommend balmex to all new mothers. It is a wonderful product. A friend of mine told me about it. I was a new mother, and I was happy to take any advice that other mothers were willing to give me.
