Question

Will wearing a diaper outside pants affect the child’s leg shape?

Answer

In your description of the condition, the baby has been wearing diapers outside the pants since two months old. This situation generally does not affect the baby’s leg shape. It is recommended to wear the diaper inside the pants, close to the baby’s skin, which can reduce the distance between the legs and avoid any impact on the baby’s leg growth. It is worth noting that babies can use diapers appropriately within their first year, but it is recommended to stop using them after one year. Long-term use of diapers may lead to enuresis in the future and may cause leg deformities in the baby.
