I received some used cloth diapers from a friend, she said they needed to be stripped before use--I used Dawn to strip.

Last night I changed my daughters diaper and there was a rash everywhere except her butt...the diaper was only wet not soiled. She was in a Goodmama my friend had given me. I thought it was weird that she had a rash, and it looks pretty intense. Well I remembered talk of ammonia and I smelt the diaper...I think it has a slight ammonia smell, but I'm not entirely sure.

My daughter is only 6 weeks old, so should her wet diapers even be causeing ammonia build up at this point? I thought that only started when incorporating other foods other then breast milk?

How do I treat it if it is an ammonia burn, just diaper rash cream? And should I try stripping all of her diapers again, or just wash them like crazy?]]>
