Are Disposable Diapers Safe For Infants?
Question: Should disposable diapers be used for new born banies or cloth nappies? Which are more convenient and skin friendly for the baby?
Brief Answer:
Soft cotton cloth nappies are the best - diapers only while going out
Detailed Answer:
Hi...Coming to your queries directly.
1. Soft cotton cloth nappies are the best when at home. Disposable diapers are to be used only while going out for ease of travel and inconvenience.
2. As the now it is my personal opinion is that Pampers are the best. i have used them for my kid without any problems. But we do not know which material is good for which baby's skin. So I suggest you use pampers and if the brand is suiting well...please continue the same.
I remember you asking a question about detergent for baby clothes and what is to be used for baby bath. Hope in that question and this you were happy with my interaction.
It happened such that I myself interacted with you both the times incidentally.
I wish your kid a bright future. If you need any future medical consultation and suggestions, I will be glad to help. You can approach me at the following link.
