The reasons for diapers’ leakage

Diapers have replaced traditional nappies with their advantages of beautiful appearance, easy wearing, and practicality, becoming a must-have for countless infants and incontinence sufferers. In the process of using diapers, sometimes you may encounter many problems, including red buttocks, friction injury, leakage of urine/stool, etc.

Urinary leakage in diapers is not only related to the quality of the diapers, but sometimes it can also be caused by incorrect wearing methods, inappropriate sizes, and untimely replacement.

1. Improper wearing of diapers

Let the baby lie flat on the bed, replace the used diaper, place a new diaper under the baby's body, adjust to the comfortable position, and then stick the waist patch according to the baby's waist circumference, paying attention to the size of the elasticity to avoid looseness and excessive tightness that may cause injury.

2. Inappropriate size

When the size is too large, leaving gaps in the leg opening can easily lead to urinary leakage. If the size is too small, then the diaper is too tight, once urination occurs without storage, urine will flow out through the leg opening, causing leakage.

The suitable weight is marked on the diaper, and the diaper should be purchased according to the baby's weight range. Parents should observe the tightness of their baby's diapers during use and make timely adjustments in size.

3. Delayed replacement

When the water absorption state of diapers is saturated and excess urine cannot be absorbed, it can also lead to leakage of urine in diapers. Observe the urine display line of the baby's diapers. When the baby urinates, the urine display line will change color, and it is necessary to replace the baby's diapers.

4. Poor quality

Poor water absorption, lack of leak proof design or poor quality of leak proof design, and insufficient adhesion of waist patches can all cause urine leakage in diapers. If parents replace their baby with the correct method, timely replacement, and appropriate size, but still leak urine multiple times, it is likely a quality issue. Parents are advised to consider changing the brand of their baby's diapers.
