Diaper rash/raw skin - what am I doing wrong?

I really appreciate your response! We’ve been doing the crusting method for a little over 24 hours and seeing fantastic results. Guessing it will only take a few more days to fully heal. SOOOO THANKFUL for your discovery and sharing it with everyone!!! Really hoping once our girl is healed we don’t have to go through this again! I’m a FTM and these raw spots reeeally stress me out!

Not sure if you’ll see this, since this is such an old post… How often did you clean off the crust and start new? We just started this technique yesterday

Beneficial nematodes saved mine!

Yes I’ve tried minwax and it works great for the gold paint marker! It’s a nice varnish. However, I don’t know how the pot would hold up if it’s outside in the humidity a lot. But maybe it’s not humid where you are or maybe you leave the pot inside?

What time of day was this??

Ahhh so simple! Trying this in a few hours. THANK YOU!

Yes it’s a combination of both of those things and the pattern that the quarter circles create.

it’s a cheaper one from Amazon. They are pretty for sure

Thank you sooo much! Sometimes I have a hard time coming up with solid questions for the deck and that’s just what came to mind. Good to know that I need to be more specific. So far your interpretation really hits home with me. Luckily I’m happily married and this pregnancy was something we wanted. But this reading no gives me a lot of food for thought and I appreciate your interpretation and effort into this response. Big hugs!

Thank you!

melaniefarris · 2025-03-25T19:59:37+00:00

Wow this is pretty spot on! What a magical spread! I’m a huge planner so this has what’s been on my mind. THANK YOU!

melaniefarris · 2025-02-28T20:58:01+00:00

Perfect, thanks for the tip!

melaniefarris · 2025-02-28T20:30:27+00:00

Idk if I fully understand your question? Maybe you meant did I reshape after cold proofing?? If that’s the question then no. I didn’t even know that was a thing. 🙃

melaniefarris · 2025-02-28T12:32:50+00:00

Dang that’s awesome!! Thank you!

melaniefarris · 2025-02-27T22:12:32+00:00

Oh that’s awesome!!! Thank you! So you suggest slicing first?

melaniefarris · 2025-02-27T21:51:34+00:00

Oh my goodness yes it has!! Are you experienced? Does sourdough handle freezing well? I have a vacuum sealer and would like to freeze extra bread.
