For On-the-Go Babies As mentioned earlier in the article you can use the bed wetting pants that are available in the supermarkets if your child agrees. These are perhaps most useful if you are staying away from home (someone elses house, a hotel, holidays etc) when you can'tlaunder your washable sheet. They are quite expensive but your child can put them on and take them off on their own, and they sometimes have designs on them to make them look less like nappies.

And there was no leaks and she didn't even know she was wet which she certainly did with her old pull ups. For example, if your baby weighs 4 or 5 kilograms a Pampers size 2 nappy might be the ideal size, but if you have a baby who is long and slim you might need to stay with the smaller of the two possible sizes (Pampers size 1) for the best fit.At first as you would expect she wasn't happy and put up a few arguments about the things youd expect but eventually after talking to her about it and convincing her nobody would know apart from people that needed to know and a small bit of bribery with a small chocolate bar she eventually agreed to let me put a nappy on her. If a nappy is too big, urine and poo may run out through gaps between the nappy and the skin before the nappy can absorb it. The leg cuffs shouldn’t have any gaps. After the diaper is on, run two fingers just inside the leg cuffs to remove any gaps, which can help prevent leaks.

They are formulated to care for older, more fragile skin, meaning that the effects of urine on the skin will be minimised, making the nappy less likely to produce nappy rash. They also have breathable side panels to keep your child cool over night. As you know, babies come in all sizes and shapes, so nappies fit a bit differently on every baby. To keep things simpler, Pampers nappy sizes are based on baby weight – not things like age or gender. Wondering which diaper size to choose for your little one?

Many parents choose to go straight on to the Drynites or Underjams products which are bed wetting pants for older children. To find a diaper size for your baby, look for your baby’s weight (which you can determine at home or obtain from your child’s healthcare provider at each well-baby visit). For example, a size 1 diaper’s weight range is for a baby who is between 8 and 14 pounds, whereas a size 2 diaper’s weight range is between 12 and 18 pounds. The parents we spoke to decided to go with our MoliCare Soft All in One Extra, Size extra small. This is an extra small sized adult nappy. Because it's designed for adults (but in a smaller size) it has many features that aren't usually found in baby nappies. For instance, it has internal leak guards and wide elasticated leg cuffs which will help keep leaks to a minimum. They also have four tapes instead of two, making the fit better and them less likely to come undone.
