Q.

How long can a baby wear diapers without changing? I have been using the same diaper overnight. What might be the possible issues if we don't change the diaper within 4-6 hours?

A. Diaper should not be used 24 hrs as it causes diaper rash which usually results when there is prolonged irritation of skin leading to infection or allergy. Most common cause of skin irritation is whegn diaper is left for too long or the fecal matter in diaper rubs against the delicate skin. so diaper shouhld be changed every 3-4 hrs at least and avoid using diaper for all time . give diaper free interval in between which is very important .

A. good evening if the diaper is absolutely dry you can even use it for continuously 6 hours there is no problem but otherwise it is recommended to try to change the diaper at proper intervals for the child
