#asktheexperts Please tell me the healthy diapering things. How can I manage to put my baby in diaper all the time without diaper rash in winter. Because if I put him without diaper for some time he will definitely catch up to the cold.

A. Daily before putting diapers apply some coconut oil in the diaper area. This will prevent rashes. Also give some diaper free time everyday by using cloth nappies for few hours. This will also help to avoid rashes by keeping the diaper area airy which is always covered tight in diapers. Always change the diaper every four to five hours or when the baby poops or when the diaper feels heavy whichever is the earliest. Even if they advertise as ten hours absorbing diaper it is good to change in every five hours. Then gently wipe the area with warm water and apply some coconut oil and then put a new diaper
