A CHANGE THAT’S IMPORTANT
By William Kitay
Member. National Association

The one thing the young mother
learns quickly is that the most im
portant problem of dressing her
baby is the diaper. And the reason
simply is that the need for a
change is the main cause of baby’s
discomfort.
In addition to mastering the pro
per technique of diapering, she
must also give thought to the dis
turbing possibility of running out
of diapers.
For the mother-to-be and for
the mother who still is finding it a
bit difficult to keep baby neat and
comfortable and in a diaper that
does not fall off, here are a few
pointers:
To be effective and to do its
job properly, a diaper should fit
snugly on baby. A snug fit does
not mean a tight fit. A diaper that
is too tight will make baby quite
uncomfortable. The same holds
true for a diaper that is bulky.
Diapers today come in many
shapes and sizes. The most popular
is the pre-folded gauze diaper.
These have a double or extra thick
ness; in the back for the girl, in the
front for the boy.
Before placing the diaper under
baby, fold the top edge down about
three or four inches. The size of the
baby will determine exactly how
much. This is to assure a snug fit.
Then, draw the bottom of the dia
per up between baby’s legs, smooth
it out and pin it to the top edge at
the corners.
When pinning the diapers, put
your hand between the diaper and
baby’s tummy and slide the pin
through the cloth slowly and care
fully. Check the pins to make sure
they’re really closed. You’ll find
that the pins will more easily go
through a diaper that has been

specially treated by a professional
diaper service to make it soft and
fluffy.
Babies use diapers for about the
first two years of their lives, using
from 100 a week in the beginning
to 35 a week when they are almost
trained. Despite this knowledge,
the mother who does her own dia
pers must always be ready for the
emergency of running out of dia
pers.
