My 4mth old bub is teething and drooling all over the place, her neck lines on all her clothes r soaked from her chewing on them. She is very healthy looking so she has a few rolls. Under her neck is a problem......due 2 her drooling and constantly being damp she has formed a red rash under her neck and it is starting to smell a bit. I constantly dry her neck line off BUT it does not take long 4 it 2 b wet again. Any ideas as 2 how 2 get the "stinky neck" clear?????

Keep a bib on her. Also take a wet, warm wash cloth and wipe the area often. You can use baby wipes as well. This is very common and happens to all babies. Also, make sure you change the baby's clothes at least 3 times a day. Good luck and GOD bless.

Rub some vaseline jelly or A & D ointment around her neck to repel the wetness and have a handy moist cloth(bettr yet a baby wipe) nearby when it gets messy.

Its probably from her spitting up my 4 month old son gets the same thing but its only when he is spitting up and drooling just wiping them off and keeping it dry helps

sit her up more often then the droolin will stay mainly around the chin an front of neck ( easier to clean the front because there are less folds in the skin for the drool to stay in hidden)

you could keep a bib around her neck to absorb the drooling or use baby powder every now and then.as long as she doesn't inhale.
