1. **Daytime Use**: Diapers are fine for daytime use. Change them regularly to keep your baby dry and comfortable. Typically, this means changing diapers every 2-3 hours or when they are soiled.
2. **Nighttime Use**: It’s also okay to use diapers at night. Choose a diaper designed for overnight use if your baby tends to wet heavily while sleeping. These diapers are more absorbent and help prevent leaks.
3. **Changing Frequency**: The frequency of diaper changes depends on your baby’s individual needs. As a general rule:
- **Daytime**: Change the diaper every 2-3 hours or sooner if it’s wet or soiled.
- **Nighttime**: Change before bedtime and again in the morning. If the diaper is heavily soiled during the night, change it as needed.
4. **Avoiding Rashes**: To prevent diaper rash, use a good diaper cream, keep the area clean and dry, and give your baby some diaper-free time to air out.
Always monitor your baby for signs of discomfort or rash and adjust the diapering routine as needed. If you have concerns about diaper use or rash, consult your pediatrician for personalized advice.
