Irritation from Drooling

Adapted from the Babycenter article "Teething :How to Ease Your Baby ' s Discomfort"


If there's one thing babies do a lot?it's drool, especially when they're teething. Your baby may get a red rash on his chin and lower lip from all the drooling that comes with teething. The wetness can irritate his skin, particularly at night when he rubs his face against his crib sheet. Wipe, but don't rub, the drool off with a soft cotton cloth. You can also smooth petroleum jelly or DESITIN® Clear Multi-Purpose Ointment on his chin before a nap or before bed to help protect the skin from further irritation.
