How baking soda helps in diaper rash treatment

We can all agree that our babies have the gentlest skin ever. Because of how soft and fragile their skin is it is important to preserve it. In the event that your baby does run into skin issues, it is important that you first treat your baby with natural ingredients. This is important as harsh chemicals and ingredients can make some skin irritations worse. One of the most helpful natural remedies and ingredients you can use on your baby is baking soda! Keep reading on how to keep your baby's skin happy and healthy. 

There are a ton of amazing benefits of using baking soda both at home, for yourself, and for your baby! Baking soda is an everyday game-changer and you may already have some at home. Making this remedy easy and accessible. 

Although we aren't very aware of how beneficial it is, we use the ingredient every day—from clearing up a stuffy nose to cleaning the bathtub, baking soda is used often in our homes in more than just a yummy dish. Baking soda is a versatile ingredient whose uses extend far beyond cooking due to its power to level pH, it is very acidic, too alkaline and entirely neutral. 

Diaper rash is a common skin condition that nearly all babies get at some time or another. It happens when the moisture from urine and feces irritates their delicate skin. Baking Soda alleviates Diaper Rash and is completely safe. 

Baking soda can neutralize acids like lactic acid in sweat and citric acid in urine. That's why adding baking soda to bathwater can help balance out the natural acidity of your baby's skin. Baking soda helps in soothing irritated skin because it has a mild anti-inflammatory and can decrease itching, pain, and inflammation.  It has been proven how good  is  baking soda for diaper rash. It can kill the fungus that may be contributing to diaper rash. This definitely shows how great is a baking soda bath for diaper rash.

Here are other benefits of baking soda when added to bathwater.:

Reduces itchiness in the baby’s skin

Does baking soda burn diaper rash? Not directly, but it can relieve itchy skin by removing oil, dirt, and sweat. Add a few drops of essential oil to your baby's bath for an added soothing effect.

Helps Keep Your Baby’s Skin Soft

Baking soda is a natural cleansing agent that helps remove the dirt and grime from your baby’s skin, leaving it soft and smooth.

Removes Odors

When added to your baby’s bathwater, baking soda can help remove the offensive odors from their body, caused by perspiration, urine, or other conditions like diaper rashes. Adding a few drops of essential oil like lavender can add to the experience of a relaxing and soothing bath for your little one.

Baking soda is most often used in soaps as a deodorizer. Other ingredients such as essential oils are added to scented soaps to create products parents like. Baking soda itself doesn't have any particular scent or any other therapeutic properties, but it does help with stain and odor removal.

Cleaning baby bottles

There's no need to spend money on expensive commercial cleaning products. All you need is a little baking soda, water, soap, and some time!

Follow these easy steps:

1) Soak bottles, rings, and nipples overnight in 4 tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in 1 quart of warm water.

2) Wash with hot water and soap the next day.

3) Dry everything thoroughly and use it.

Washing baby clothes

If you're washing baby clothes in hard water, add a half cup of baking soda to your machine's detergent mix. This will make your baby’s clothes softer and give them a fresh scent. Baking soda also helps to remove tough stains.

Airing Diaper Pails

Add a good amount of baking soda to your diaper pails. Baking soda will help neutralize odors in the diapers until you dispose of or clean them. It also helps coat the diapers with baking soda, which will help absorb liquid and keep them from leaking.

Chemical Free Natural Diaper

Refresh Stuffed Toys

To eliminate odors from your little one’s stuffed toys, sprinkle them with baking soda and allow them to stand for 15 minutes. Then vacuum or brush off the soda.

Brush away Cradle Cap

Baking soda can be used as a mild exfoliating agent. Mix baking soda with baby oil to make a paste, then apply to your baby’s scalp. Rub into your baby’s scalp with small circular motions to help brush away flakes of cradle cap.

Takes Away Bad Odor and Balances pH Levels

There are few things in life that can be as uncomfortable or cause distress to your baby while sitting with an overnight wet diaper. Unfortunately, there’s only so much you can do to prevent this from happening, but there is something you can do to make the situation a little better.

Baking soda is a powerful alkaline that can be used to get rid of bad smells and balance pH levels. This makes it the perfect solution for babies who have been stuck with a wet diaper for too long. All you need to do is add a little bit of baking soda to your baby’s bathwater, and it will neutralize the bad odor from their diapers, making them feel fresh again.

Parasol’s Natural Way In Eliminating Diaper Rash

Diaper rash can be a real bummer. It's no fun for a baby to have a sore tushy, and it can be frustrating for parents to deal with a fussy baby who just won't settle down. Plus, treating diaper rash can be tricky, especially if you're worried about making things worse by exposing your baby's sensitive skin to harsh chemicals.

Luckily, Parasol diaper subscription got you covered! We make diapers that help you eliminate diaper rash and our wipes are the best natural baby wipes for eliminating diaper rash—and we know it because parents have told us so!

Our Natural Baby diapers are highly regarded for their luxurious softness and clean ingredients. Every diaper is crafted with premium, high GSM fabrics for wider coverage and maximum breathability. They're made with a 3D embossed inner cover for added softness and fluid control, keeping your baby comfy all day and all night.

We know how important it is for parents to feel like they're making the best decision for their kids—that's why our products are hypoallergenic, specially designed for sensitive skin with RashShield™ protection that wicks urine instantly and locks humidity layers deep, guarding skin against diaper rash.

In addition, Parasol Natural Baby Wipes out baby rash with sensitive-skin therapy that heals and protects. Parasol scent-free and hypoallergenic baby wipes gently clean with a pure, plant-based formula that nourishes and restores sensitive skin. Our Medical-grade, Spunlace fabrics with 99% reverse-osmosis H20 are thicker than average to absorb more without ripping or tearing, which means fewer wipes per diaper change.

Not all baby wipes are created equal.

Baby wipes aren’t all priced the same...because they’re not made the same. Our new plant-based Clear+Pure™ baby wipes are dermatologist-certified and formulated with only the purest ingredients. They’re stronger to prevent tearing, more effective at getting baby really clean with fewer wipes...and they dispense one wipe at a time. At the end of a long day of changing diapers (and at the bottom of your baby’s bum), that is all clearly the best value we know.
