Hi! Wally is still suckling Marty! :osnap The body sock won't stay on. :soapbox Someone mentioned Gold Bond cream (Mars?) in the past. Does anyone know exactly which one will work? Will Desitin diaper ointment help?

He's not overly red, just irritated & he's not blocked at all. Just looking at what will help heal & deter his brother at the same time. (Wally just loves the taste of Neosporin! :shakehead )
:thankyou

I always use THUM. It is for thumb suckers and works great. It does sting if you put it on and he has an open wound, though. I usually separate out the sore guy and let him heal up for a couple days, then I put the THUM on and put him back in with his buddies and they leave him alone. I put it on 2 times a day, after pittling.
