With the advent of a small child in the family, the parents immediately add to the hassle — you need to heat the water for bathing, regularly change the baby’s clothes, feed him, and so on. However, manufacturers are constantly striving to make life easier for people with small children — it is for these purposes that disposable diapers have been created. They absorb moisture well, do not cause diaper rash, do not restrict the movement of the child.
If the baby is the first in the family, then it is unlikely that the parents know anything specific about this product. We also decided to contribute and made a rating of the best diapers. The review includes the highest quality products, which, moreover, are quite affordable. In addition to analyzing their main characteristics, we want to give young parents some very useful tips that will surely come in handy when they buy these products.
How to choose the right diapers?
The key rule is that at first you should not immediately purchase a large package. The fact is that each child’s body has its own characteristics and differences, so a certain brand may not suit him, even if most of his friends advise it. It is much better to purchase several varieties and try them all, and then settle on the most suitable brand.
When choosing diapers, you will have to pay attention to many parameters. If the child has recently been born, then it is advisable to give preference to models that are equipped with a cutout for the umbilical wound. Take into account the speed and quality of absorption. The baby’s skin must remain dry at all times. If it is even a little wet, then the use of such products should be immediately abandoned.
They look at how tightly the product fits the back, stomach and legs of the child, but the diaper should not pull them. If it is excessively loose, then there is a high probability of leakage, tight will cause inconvenience to the baby. The smell of the product should be neutral or completely absent. Strong-smelling varieties are usually laced with some kind of chemicals that are unlikely to be beneficial to the health of the child.
It is quite convenient if the diaper has a fullness indicator — the child will not have to disturb or wake up once again. On sale there are products of various sizes, usually they vary depending on the weight of the baby. However, here, too, everything is individual, that is, you will again have to start from the physical characteristics of the child himself. For example, if he is taller than average and thin, then it is better to buy diapers one size smaller, when the baby is plump, it is advisable to buy products one size larger.
A high-quality and well-chosen diaper will not rub the baby’s skin, leaving behind red marks, it does not leak and does not cause diaper rash or a rash. In the latter case, manifestations of an allergic reaction to any absorbent components cannot be ruled out, so it is better to choose a diaper of a different brand.
When we chose products to be included in our rating of the best diapers, we focused, first of all, on all the factors that were described above. In addition to them, user reviews were also taken into account — the most popular and safest options for the health of babies were included in the review.
