Just separate an egg, and apply the white with clean fingers or some cotton wool to the area....a bit of nappy off time to help it to dry is useful.
I also have a tube of Vasogen the HV gave me that I sometimes use if I'm out of eggs, which I find better than Sudocrem TBH; but we just normally go with the egg-white.
As long as you don't repeatedly dip your fingers in the egg-white (i.e. try to do it in the one go), you can keep the it covered in the fridge for 24 hours.
I took my dog to play frisbee. She was useless. I think I need a flatter dog.

It's not recommended to whip up an meringue with what's left, incidentally..... :mrgreen: Mind you, with the price of eggs at the moment it's very tempting...(I'd feed it to the MIL :wink: :wink: )....

Hello. We used egg white when P had nappy rash and it's wonderful stuff. It forms a barrier between sore bot and ammonia etc, so the soreness has time to heal without being continually irritated by fresh, er, nappy contents :mrgreen:

Hope the teeth settle down soon :?
