The Confessional

Over the weekend, I was reminded of a pregnancy confession that I haven't clued you Boozehounds in on: I have had diaper rash. Yep, you read that right. When I was pregnant with The Quiet Contemplator, I got a bad case of diaper rash.

How, you ask? Let me break it down for you. We mamas all know that during pregnancy, there can be more...ahem...discharge produced from your nether regions. Well, I had that problem for pretty much my entire pregnancy. To keep my underoos from resembling a rainforest on a daily basis, I wore panty liners pretty much 24-7 for about 9 months. This resulted in a wicked case of diaper rash on my lady bits. Yikes, I know!

So, what did I do? I broke out my unborn daughters Butt Paste and Aquaphor, of course. Problem solved! Just thought I would share just in case any other preggo eggos needed help with their undercarriages. You're welcome!


The Confessional is now open. Have something you need to repent for? Feel free to send me your sin and I will help your purge your demons.

  2. I also had this problem with my first. I thought mah bits were going to fall off until I bought some Extra Strength Hydrocortisone cream....

  3. Ditto. Exact same thing. That is when I discovered the purpose of baby powder. Spread that on the chafing bits and done.

  4. That problem you had for the whole nine months? I've had for the entire four years since my daughters birth. Yep. So I feel you. Panty liners were foreign to me until I brought by baby home from the hospital.

  5. I got a really bad rash after lounging around in my sexy underwear while waiting for my husband to get home. Needless to say, there was no lovins that night or any other night until I was through with the butt paste.

    Lesson learned: don't even try to be sexy because it will shoot me in the ass... Er, foot....

  6. cloth pads. seriously. they have no nasty chemical component to cause said rash. i used to get the rash from the few days i was on a pad during my period. i switched to cloth (try searching "party in my pants") and have never looked back!

I love hearing from you. It reinforces that writing this blog is not just a silly waste of my brain matter. If you leave a douche canoe comment, I will delete it. I am powerful like that.
