My baby's bum is red and looks sore...what can I do?

Strange as it may sound, there are wonderful healing properties in breast milk so if you are feeding this way..strip your baby and let your boobs leak some milk onto the red area. You could put some on a cotton wool pad and dab it on if you prefer. Try and leave your baby's bum exposed to air as this will help dry it out. You may also choose to use conventional creams, of which there are many, designed for such a purpose.
