We battle this all of the time. The drs here say it is because of the enzymes. Here is what we have found that works.
First and foremost, get the poop off as fast as you can. Avery would go in the middle of the night and would wake up to a burnt bottome.
Secondly give as much 'naked' time as you can. We cut a large garbage bag and lay it flat under a blanket to protect the floor.
We have used desitin, butt paste, and aquaphor. What works for us is critic aid. I found the suggestion on this website. It sticks to her bottom until we scrub it off - it protects the best. We had our pharmacy order it - it was $14 per bottle. It lasts awhile because you don't have to goop it on, a thin layer works just great.
I would try several things then see what works best for your child.
