Question
Is it okay for a seven-month-old baby to use diapers at night? I want to give my baby a diaper to avoid interruptions during the night.
Answer
You can use diapers to ensure your baby has a good sleep, but be sure to change them often and try not to let the baby’s genitals come into prolonged contact with urine to reduce the risk of diaper rash and urinary inflammation. It’s best to use diapers less during the day to minimize the chance of developing a rash.
