Oh, Jen, the same thing happened to me some years ago.  Here the 
stuff's called zinc and caster oil cream, and I left a full tub of it 
in my daughter's room overnight, unaware that she was able to climb 
out of her bed!  Beth knew it was bum cream, so...ALL her teddies had 
oily bums, the black rocking horse was dappled, and it took me a week 
to get the slime out of her hair (she covered herself the way Ginger 
did).  So don't worry, you're not alone...but at least Beth kept her 
nappy on.  Good thing, as she had carpet in her bedroom!

Tell you what, grab a glass of Aussie chardonnay and join me for a 
good giggle, OK? :)
