so after my surgery, for quite some time, I can't shower.
I've ordered some of that no wash shower stuff from xp with my confidry order.
I can take bird baths but that's really it.
what can I do to prevent diaper rash?
I have some cream as well.
thanks!

There have been plenty of times where I couldn't shower after a surgery. The "bird bath" is your best option in my opinion. Just a wash cloth with soapy water is really all you need. (Though a separate clean water tub helps for rinsing off the soap).

Cool thanks. hopefully I won't have any issues. I change pretty frequently (i HATE bring wet) so I'm sure that will help.

Hi justej. You may also want to get some no rinse cleansers. Those are also helpful when you are out and about and need quick wash or change. I normally keep a spray bottle of that and sole baby wipes on me or in my bag/car just in case.
