Baby diapering is very important where specific precautions are necessary.
Baby skin is very tender and soft specially in the genital area where frequent urination and motion may be a increase risk factors for bacterial infection . you need to change the diaper frequently in such condition to avoid prolonged contact and friction which can cause rash .
A regular mousturisation with a petrolium jelly or a diaper rash cream is required .
try to use disposable diapers as they are better absorbent than cloth one.
Dont use diaapers all the time for 24 hrs. keep some diaper free interval .

Answer

Ideally u should change the diapers frequently after 3-4 hours. But if ur baby is sleeping through the night, you really dont wanna wake him/her up. In that case, ensure u maintain proper hygiene of cleaning the genitals and applying rash creams before and after changing the diaper. My baby is 5 m old too and i dont change her diaper in the night now.
