4 points to consider to get the right diaper size for your Baby.

Diapers are parents’ best friends. And absolutely even the kids love their diapers. Diapers offer liberating and carefree confidence to a child.  The result is always a gorgeous smile on your child’s face. Well, this all can go haywards if the diaper size isn’t fit for your kid. It’s very important that you find a diaper that is appropriate for your child’s size. If not, be prepared for your child to turn into a cranky mess.  

Well, here are 4 things to consider while choosing the right diaper fit for your baby. 

1) Weight

Most of the time the diaper size recommended for age would go for your child. But it’s important to understand that every child grows differently. Look for weight-appropriate diapers for your baby. If they are healthier than their age group or flimsier than their group, you would need to consider the diapers that fit them appropriately. 

Besides, consider the excreting needs of your child and observe any pattern if there exist. If they urinate and poop a lot during a certain time of the day, you need more protective diapers for that time. Go for extra-absorbent and long stay protection diapers during the night. If not changed timely, diapers can cause rashes and infections which would affect the health of your child. 

2) Age

You definitely need to consider the age of your child while choosing a diaper. You can easily find infants, month-specific, and age-specific baby diapers in the market. These diapers are prepared to suit the excreting needs of that specific age. See to it that the age-appropriate diaper corresponds to the weight of your kid and is suitable for them. 

3) Waist size

The waist of the kid should also be taken into account. You don’t want the diapers to fall just because it is too big or create red marks because it is too tight. The diaper should fit perfectly to the waist. In fact, the ideal way to check if the fit is okay is by ensuring 2 fingers pass through the waist. If your fingers can easily run through the fit is perfect. 

4) Fitting of diaper

There are certain checklists that ensure that the fit of a diaper is perfect.

1. The diaper should reach the baby’s waist. 

2. After fastening the tabs, pass two fingers through it. If it goes smoothly, the fit is good. 

3. Ensure that after removing the diaper, there aren’t any red marks on the waist. If so, it is time to upgrade to a new size. 

4. The diaper should cover the entire bum portion. 

5. The area around the thigh should have enough room for air to pass by. Again use a 2 finger rule to check that the diaper isn’t too tight or loose around the thigh. 

6. The diaper shouldn’t fall off or require adjustment when the child is walking or playing. 

7. The leakage shouldn’t drop from the sides of the leg. If that is happening, the diaper size is too big or its absorbency capacity is less than required. 

Wrapping up, getting to the right diaper size can take time. Hence, don’t bulk buy from the first purchase. See if it fits your child and your child feels happy in it. If so, go ahead and buy the bulk packs. But ensure not to stock much. Your child grows faster than you anticipate and you don’t want the diaper stash to go to waste. So be extremely wise while making a diaper stash.
