In the age,many mums choose to use diapers for their baby.Me too.I use diaper for my baby.I know,using diaper often or every day is not healthy for the baby.Like red and itchy on the skin even interference ureter.But I think,using diapers could help mum to reduce their stir or busy.We don't have to change the clothes or wet floor and dirty because they urine or pup.What do you think about it? Thank for your share.

Using diaper for baby actually not highly recommended especially to baby girl. Why ? because droppings fecal and urine becomes more embedded in the skin baby in long time. Imagine, if you use dirty diaper ?

I have never heard of somebody not using a diaper at all on their child. I always use diapers on my children. Once my childern got to the walking age they would go without a diaper for maybe a half hour to "air out" but nothing more then that. I could never emagine not having my child where a diaper at all as an infant or young baby. I believe that children should always wear a diaper unless they are dirty with poop or pee. I think it's way too un sanitary to not have a diaper on their bums.

Hi magrylouyu,thank for your share.When I and my sisters were baby,no one of us who using diapers.Maybe because in my era there is no diapers.I don't know about your country.There are many people who not using diapers for their baby,because the price is not cheap.so,they use clothes (pantie for baby).In my family,using diapers that just if we go to public place,but if we capable to buy, so,we buy it.Gratefully,my baby able using diapers everyday.

I guess if you can afford diapers why not use them. The babies are less irritative and also they are happy and sleep more when they are dry. Also be due diligent to check and change their dapers as needed and also when changing give a few minutes to air out so that they dont develop rashes.i think it is more hygenic too that clothes and stuff.

Babies should always have diapers on, except when the diaper is dirty. Then it should be changed immediately so that the baby does not get a rash (red and itchy skin). When you change the diaper, clean the baby well with a clean cloth and water, then dry the baby's skin and apply some olive oil. Now put on the clean diaper. Keep the skin clean and the diaper changed if it is dirty. Coat the clean skin with olive oil before putting on new diaper, then baby's skin will not turn red or get itchy.

I also use disposable diapers on my baby...like almost 24 hours a day. Since my baby is just a few months old, I believe that sleeping is a great facto for his growth. I wouldn't want to wake him up just to change everytime he wets his clothes after urinating. That's the main reason why I choose to use diaper. Secondly, I agree that it is more convenient on my part also. I don't have to check on him everytime, just to find out if his wet. My baby never had a skin problem due to the use of diapers, so skin allergies or sensitivity is not an issue to us. Overall, I believe it is more useful than the conventional, cloth diapers.

Thanks for your share.You are right that sleeping is a great facto for his growth.So,we must not disturb the sleep only to change the wet clothes.Maybe the way care is less good wich caused the skin problem.But,I think we have to check his diaper for minimize the effect like urinating problem.Because,dirt that has been able to log back in when he next move.

I used diapers for both of my kids. Actually its such a peace when the kids are in diapers, this i realized when i trying to potty train them. I used to use them 24hrs, but when they were abt 6 months, started leaving them without diapers for atleast few hrs(when i was sure they won't pee or poo). And after 1 yr. , full day without them. Happy parenting.

My kids are grown up now but i rarely used diapers for them during their childhood. Only during long journeys or long dayouts as our older genration do not believe in such things and my in laws were with me. But nowa days we diapers which are all without side efects so u can use for whatever time. Thanx
