Question

How often should you change a diaper when it’s wet?

Answer

The frequency of changing a baby’s wet diaper mainly depends on the baby’s diet and activity level that day. If the baby drinks a lot of milk and water, they may urinate multiple times in a short period; if the baby sleeps for longer periods, the interval between changes may be longer. Therefore, there is no fixed time for changing, and parents need to observe and decide based on their baby’s physical condition. Generally, when the wetness indicator on the diaper changes color or when using a wetness reminder, it is time to change the diaper to maintain the baby’s comfort and hygiene. If you are concerned about not changing in time, consider using a wetness reminder to change the diaper promptly. At the same time, avoid keeping the baby immersed in urine for too long to reduce the risk of urinary tract infections.
