Babies in the bathroom

Well I have babies in the bathroom who need to go to the bathroom without assistance....that was a mouth-full! They say you learn something new everyday and indeed I did today. Apparently Amelia hasn't been cleaning her little ones since birth. I did not know to watch for this on a daily basis and now the problem has really spiraled into something that will take a while to heal. The babies have pits inside their anal opening due to the feces/blood build up at the opening. Poor little ones, I know it hurts but now I will have to remove the buildup carefully until its healed...which may be a while.


Warning, the pics are graphic.
Before cleaning-opening completely sealed, hard.

After cleaning, a hollow pit, like a cup...OUCH.

What did you do to clean it?

So far just warm water and a q-tip, I put a little triple antibiotic cream on and realized it was the pain reliever kind...the babies seemed a bit sluggish because of absorbing the med. they are active again now so just water until I get regular neosporin
