Diaper rash is a skin problem that still worries many parents..One of the causes of diaper rash in your little one is the wrong diaper sizeTo avoid this, there is nothing wrong with mom and dad finding out how to choose the right diaper size to prevent diaper rash. For moms and dads who are still having trouble choosing the right diaper size for your little one, see the following review.

The process of choosing a diaper size still often makes parents confused about choosing the right one. Until now, it is not uncommon for parents to choose diaper sizes based on their age. Though choosing a good diaper must be in accordance with his weight. Because the weight of each baby's age is very different. Following the baby's weight can certainly make the diaper feel right on the little one's body, not too small and not too big. Because diapers that are the wrong size can cause friction between the diaper and the baby's skin.

Besides diaper rash, the downside of choosing a diaper size that doesn't fit is that the diaper leaks easily. The part of the diaper that wraps around the curve of your baby's thigh looks loose or too tight. You will also see rubber marks or redness on the skin in contact with the diaper. The red marks indicate that the diaper used is too small.

Usually in each diaper packaging there is a guide for the size and weight of the baby. Here's how to choose the right diaper according to your little one's weight and a size guide based on MAKUKU's:

Size NB (Newborn)

  • Weight: 0-5 kg
  • Age: 0-1 month

Size S

  • Weight: 4-8 kg
  • Age: 1- 3 months

 Size M

  • Weight: 6-11 kg
  • Age: 4-6 months

Size L

  • Weight: 9-14 kg
  • Age: 7-12 months

Size XL

  • Weight: 12-17 kg
  • Age: 12-15 months

Size XXL

  • Weight: 15-25 kg
  • Age: 15-25 months

If the size and weight of your little one is not enough to know whether the diaper used by your little one is right or not. Mom and dad don't need to worry, because there are signs that can show the baby's diaper is the wrong size, including:

The baby's bottom is not covered properly

If mom and dad see that the baby's bottom is not covered properly, it's a sign that the diaper size is wrong. This is usually because the diaper used is too small and narrow. Even though the most important thing in using a diaper is that the baby's bottom must be completely covered so that it can accommodate your baby's stool or urine properly.

Adhesive is not on the hip

Diaper adhesive at the waist if the size is right it will be on the hip. Meanwhile, if the diaper adhesive is too above or below the hip, it is a sign that the diaper used is the wrong size.

The side layer

Usually the diaper has a leak-proof side layer. When mom and dad choose the wrong diaper size, this side part will look loose, not installed properly and easily separated from the curves of your little one's body.

Tight

waistband Belts that are too tight can leave red marks. It can even trigger the appearance of red patches on the baby's skin. If mom and dad want to know if the small elastic waistband of the diaper can be sure to pull with the fingers.

Those are some things that mom and dad should pay attention to when choosing the right diaper for your little one. It is important to choose the right diaper size to prevent diaper rash and other skin problems. (Aq/MKK)
