any powder can cause respiratory difficulties in children. this is why many pediatricians no longer recommend them. the recommended diaper treatments are ointments and lotions. not powders. if you do use it be very careful not to cause a cloud of powder that you or your baby will inhale.
why does my bag of arrowroot powder say it may cause breathing problems? i want to use this in home made baby powder. this is one ingredient in the making of this talc free baby powder. now i'm not so sure that i should use it! . the label says it may clog nose and throat if inhaled and cause difficulty. please advise
