You'll be changing your baby's diaper up to 10 times a day. That's over 70 diapers a week! 280 diapers a month! 3360 diapers during the first year! We know you want to keep your baby smiling. And since a happy baby is a dry baby, you'll want to be sure to keep her that way. So learn the basics and you'll be a pro in no time!
There are many choices in diapers today. Both cloth and disposable diapers come in a variety of sizes and with different features. After use, disposable diapers can be sealed up in a special disposal system and thrown away, while cloth diapers are laundered and reused. Whichever type of diaper you choose, make sure baby's genital area is clean after every diaper change.
