For my niece, we've actually been putting Triple Paste on her hands and then putting gloves on. Triple Paste is the world's most expensive diaper rash cream. We already had some in the house. But even a cheaper version my be worth trying if you find nothing else is working.

Thanks everyone for your advice and suggestions, I am taking note of all your ideas!        :thumbup;          I also put my neutrogena on at night so that I'm not washing as much.
