There are so many diaper rash ointments and creams on the market making it quite overwhelming to choose what will work best for our babies health. Depending on what you are looking for in a diaper cream, the end goal is to soothe our babies bums from irritation and discomfort. To gain a better understanding, we went straight to our Tush Swiper mamas to find what were some of their favorite diaper creams and why.
