Diapers are a very popular product for babies to handle feces nowadays. With diapers, babies can urinate at night without affecting adults' sleep. However, some young novice parents, even after their babies are two years old, still use diapers for their babies during the day, which has caused many objections from the elderly. So, is it okay for babies to use diapers during the day when they are two years old?
1. It is not good for babies to use diapers when they are two years old, because the breathability of diapers is not very good and cannot compare to pure cotton underwear. If children sweat, they are particularly prone to eczema. Moreover, babies over two years old already have the ability to control their own bowel movements. If they are not trained to defecate independently, they may lose their awareness of controlling their own bowel movements, which is not beneficial for babies to control their own bowel movements.
2. Diapers, even if used for newborns under one year old, are only suitable for use at night and during travel. During the day, try to remove diapers from your baby's home to allow their skin to breathe well. This way, your baby's skin and reproductive organs will develop better.
3. Babies should wear diapers for up to one and a half years old. Using them for too long is meaningless, and two-year-old children can already speak a lot. When they have the urge to urinate or defecate, they should be able to express themselves verbally. They should not defecate or urinate without restraint. Therefore, considering the above reasons, babies should gradually move away from diapers after one and a half years old.
Parents should pay attention to the health of their baby's buttocks and leg skin, as well as the development of their child's reproductive organs. Even in the neonatal and infancy periods, they should reduce the time they spend wearing diapers for their baby when they are able to take care of their baby's urination and defecation.
