Once the skin is damaged, further irritation
can be caused from chemicals in baby’s
successive urination or bowel movements
resulting from babies starting solid food, or

especially susceptible to developing diaper rash.
Diaper rash may also be common among babies
who attend day care and may not always have
timely diaper changes
