How often to change diapers?

Question

How often do you or your daycare change diapers? This is not counting number two diapers because of course those are supposed to be changed asap. I want to make sure my daycare is changing enough.

Answer

I change before a nap or bed. If I notice it is full or if she did number 2. I don't go by the clock.

Answer

I change them whenever I've noticed she's gone to the bathroom, number one or two

Answer

I change it whenever I notice she has soiled it. We don't go by a schedule.

In general I think 2 hours seems reasonable for a daycare (unless there's a poopy diaper). Three seems like it's pushing it.

If your kid doesn't have frequent/bad diaper rash it's probably being changed enough though.

Even with changing her as frequently as we do, she occasionally gets diaper rash. Usually it's because we didn't notice a poopy diaper right away.

Answer

When I worked in daycare they changed them every 3 hours and changed poopy ASAP. I'm a stay home mom and I do kinda the same thing for my little one here at home. Unless he soils before the 2 hour mark. If it's just a little damp I let him sit in it for a little bit

Answer

My daycare checks the baby's diaper every hour and changes them as needed

Answer

2-3 hours on average but I give her diaper a feel and change it as needed. Sometimes it's less often and others it's more.

Sometimes she has a red bottom and in that case I change every hour so the skin doesn't get further irritated. I'm finding my girls skin to be a lot more sensitive then my boys skin was.

Answer

I change him anytime his diaper feels wet so we go thought diapers pretty fast . The only time his diapers are really full is when he naps/goes to bed . Poopy diapers I change asap ! My LO has never gotten a rash , I guess bc I'm always changing him .

Answer

My boy seems to have excellent bladder control! I usually only change him three times a day (when he wakes in the morning, when he wakes after nap and before bed) and then when he poops. He doesnt pee often tho. If i changed him every 2 hours i would be changing dry diapers

Answer

When I worked in day care we changed them every two. With mine at home I pretty much do the same thing
