Frequently Asked Questions...

How often should I change my baby's nappy?
It's recommended to change your baby's nappy every 2 to 3 hours during the day and immediately after bowel movements to prevent diaper rash and discomfort. Brands like Huggies and Muumi Nappies offer absorbent options for longer-lasting protection.
What size nappy should I use for my baby?
Nappy sizes are based on your baby's weight and age. It's essential to choose the correct size to ensure a snug fit and prevent leaks. Brands like Huggies and Muumi Nappies offer a range of sizes to accommodate your baby's needs.
How do I prevent nappy rash?
To prevent nappy rash, change your baby’s nappies regularly, ideally every 2-3 hours during the day and whenever soiled, and ensure the nappy fits properly to avoid leaks and irritation. Keep the area dry by letting it air-dry before putting on a new nappy, and use mild, fragrance-free wipes or a damp cloth to clean. Apply a protective barrier cream containing zinc oxide or petroleum jelly to shield the skin from moisture, and allow nappy-free time to help the skin breathe. Choose breathable nappies and be attentive to any potential allergies to products. If the rash persists or worsens, consult a healthcare professional.
How do I dispose of disposable nappies responsibly?
Dispose of disposable nappies in a dedicated nappy bin or wrap them tightly in a biodegradable bag before placing them in the regular waste bin. Avoid flushing nappies down the toilet. Brands like Huggies and Muumi Nappies prioritize sustainability and offer eco-friendly disposal options.
Can I use nappy cream with every nappy change?
Nappy cream can be used as a preventative measure for nappy rash or to soothe existing rashes. However, it's not necessary to use it with every nappy change unless your baby has sensitive skin or is prone to rashes. Brands like Huggies and Muumi Nappies offer nappy creams suitable for sensitive skin.
How do I know if my baby's nappy is too tight or too loose?
A nappy should fit snugly around your baby's waist and legs without leaving red marks or causing discomfort. If the nappy is too tight, it may leave indentations on the skin, while a loose nappy may lead to leaks. Brands like Huggies and Muumi Nappies offer flexible, adjustable options for a comfortable fit.
How do I prevent nappy leaks?
To prevent nappy leaks, ensure that the nappy is the correct size for your baby, and fasten it securely around the waist and legs. Position the leg cuffs properly to create a seal and avoid overfilling the nappy. High-quality nappies like those from Huggies and Muumi Nappies offer superior absorbency and leak protection.
What should I do if my baby develops a nappy rash?
If your baby develops a nappy rash, change their nappy frequently, clean the area gently with warm water and mild soap, and apply a thin layer of nappy cream to soothe the skin. If the rash persists or worsens, consult your pediatrician for further advice and treatment. Consider using gentle nappies like those from Huggies and Muumi Nappies to minimize irritation.
