A. there is no problem in making the child wear diaper throughout the day but the important thing would be that it should not cause skin allergyf as well as you have to change it frequently before urine accumulation causes perianal rash. that means diaper has to be changed according to the urinary frequency of the child you can applyd coconut oil before making the child wear diaper which will help in decreasing the chancesf of rash .

A. Diapers should be used for shorter period of time as it may result in rashes due to prolonged usage and accumulation of moisture. You must change it in every 4-5 hours as babies tend to urinate a lot. Once changing, clean the lower area and keep it open for sometime during the day for skin to breathe. ayou can also apply coconut oil before putting it on.
