HELP! MY FIRST BABY!

so my little ones skin is peeling in the creases in his groin area. pediatrician said move up a diaper size ( he's in newborn ) . it's not red and I don't think it bothers him. but idk b/c he hates getting his pamper changed anyways. the pediatrician told me this over a phone call. I just can't seem to wrap my head around my baby being in size 1 diapers already and is only 3 weeks ???? HELP
