Where to put diaper cream on baby

Hi mummies, FTM here with a week old baby boy. Where do you exactly put diaper cream on your baby? Is it the whole butt cheeks including butthole ? Do you also put it in between their legs? And diaper creams are all super thick is it normal to put it in patches on baby’s butt like its not even, like its white all over. Do i apply after every diaper change ? And do i remove the previous balance of diaper cream before applying again or just apply over it And why is it hard to wash off the remaining of the diaper cream when giving baby a bath, do i need to use a cloth to rub it ? Im using sudocreme and pureen alternate

Apply the triangle area at the front (except for the bird bird) as for the back, I apply in the butthole and also inbetween the thighs (area that the diapers will be in contact with). Yes it’s normal to have patches all over as the consistency is thick. I just slap it on, doesn’t matter if it’s too much as it acts as a lubricant to avoid friction. Apply it every diaper change. You can remove it using a wet wipe or just run it under the tap. Just use a hankerchief to wipe it off with soap and lukewarm water during bath. Can try Drapolene, it’s thick enough but not so thick to the point it’s hard to wash off.
