Tips To Change Diaper
True / False to Change a Diaper
Everyone has their own little idea about changing (4 to 5 times a day during the first year of a baby) and gives their own advice. You only need water. Definitely no soap. Liniment is better. Never wipes... It's hard to know what to do! We'll tell you everything.
The more natural the products used, the better?
TRUE.
Babies' skin is thin, fragile and sensitive. Repeated friction with diapers, humidity, urine and stools can easily irritate it. This does not mean that you should apply tons of products to it! On the contrary. Apart from any pathology, the less you use, the better. And those you use should be as natural and simple as possible. The ideal? Water, pH-neutral soap, a cotton glove for washing or oleocalcareous liniment , which will both clean and protect baby's delicate bottom.
Is liniment just a fad?
False.
Certainly liniment is increasingly used, especially in maternity wards and daycare centers. But it is not a fad! It is a product of natural origin , protective, perfectly adapted to the sensitive bottoms of little ones. An ancestral recipe, based on lime water and olive oil that has proven itself from generation to generation. Its semi-thick texture of beige-yellow color is perfect for cleaning the bottom.
Can diaper rash be prevented?
TRUE.
Of course, few babies will spend their first two years without an episode of diaper rash! However, there are some precautions to take when changing your baby that can really help prevent it. First of all, change your baby regularly, and even more often if the stools are soft. Then, use non-aggressive cleaning products , dry well after cleaning and coat with a non-occlusive protective product.
Oleo-calcareous liniment in particular is ideal for caring for infants' bottoms. It cleans, protects and soothes the skin by forming a protective film that does not need to be rinsed off to benefit from all its benefits.
Please note that in the event of proven diaper rash, it is necessary to consult a healthcare professional who will prescribe suitable products.
We avoid wipes.
True but...
They have been criticized a lot but are still widely used for their practical side. Pediatricians agree that their use should not be daily but rather as a stopgap (when traveling for example). Pay attention to the composition and favor those whose composition is the most natural .
