It's all I have in the house and I won't be able to get to the super market until my lunch break from work.
Thanks for your quick response.

I think the Tuck's pads have witch hazel in them... they'll do for now. I just found that the straight-up witch hazel, chilled, works a little better - and it's cheaper, too.
Feel better!!
And Heather - glad it worked for you too!

HI,
Hubby & I both swear by Tucks Medicated Pads (I usually get the generic one at Walmart). They really help soothe & cleanse. The witch hazel is a great idea, too.

I think I mentioned this before but after I had my son I used baby desitin for mine. Witch hazel will dry them out even more and cause more itching! I swear by the diaper creme, because my itching was so bad I was crying. The creme will help keep it moist and relieve some of the itching. Use the witch hazel only after a BM and then apply the diaper creme. It really helped me!

I found a combination that works for me. Cold tucks pads for cleaning and straight up hydrocortizone for the itching! Today I'm feeling much better thank g-d.
You are all so great. I LOVE having all of you to talk to no this website to got to.
