How to choose diapers for newborns?

Absorbents designed for personal hygiene of babies vary in form and appearance, size, and also time of possible use. Today, reusable diapers for newborns, representing panties made of waterproof "breathable" material, inside of which special inserts are inserted, are very popular. They change as they fill, and the used tabs are erased and can be used again.

Nevertheless, most young mothers give preference to ordinary absorbent diapers, which must be disposed of immediately after use. They are available in the form of ordinary diapers with Velcro or panties, however, the latter are not applied before the baby's body weight reaches 6 kilograms.

Disposable diapers for the smallest crumbs, which only recently came into being, should be chosen with the following recommendations:

1. It is very good if the diapers are equipped with a special cutout for the navel. Umbilical wound of infants can heal within a few weeks, and all this time, in no case should it be allowed to rub it.
2. Always pay attention to the recommendations for the size that are indicated on the package. If the diaper size is not selected correctly, it will not be able to provide the necessary protection against leakage or will rub the delicate skin of the crumbs.
3. The properly chosen diaper should have a wide elastic band located on the back of the baby to fit as close to the baby's body as possible.
4. Any hygiene products for newborns should be made from environmentally friendly "breathing" materials.
5. Finally, do not give preference to diapers, the surface of which is saturated with various lotions or processed by perfumed perfumes. The presence of such components only increases the possible likelihood of an allergic reaction.
