Diaper Changing 101: The ONE Detail You Overlook!

Diaper Changing 101 The ONE Detail You Overlook!

Did you know that a baby’s skin is only 1/10th of the thickness of an adult’s?

This means baby’s delicate skin has lower protection, making them more prone to diaper rash. If you clean their bum the same way as an adult, it can easily lead to irritation.

A recent survey conducted by MamaClub within the mommy community revealed that 48% of moms use water, 38% use wet wipes, and 14% use dry cotton wipes during diaper changes. While each method has its advantages, there are some crucial concerns that parents need to consider.

Dr. Karen, with a medical degree (MBBS) from the University of Malaya and advanced studies in dermatology from Bangkok's Institute of Dermatology (Dip Derm, IOD), emphasizes the importance of keeping baby's bum completely dry before putting on a new diaper. She explains that moisture encourages the growth of bacteria like Candida and Staphylococcus, which can lead to diaper rash. 

When using wet wipes, Dr. Karen advises choosing those with antibacterial properties that are gentle on sensitive skin, and always check the ingredients for potential irritants. Alternatively, applying diaper cream as a protective layer can minimize skin exposure to moisture and friction.

Gentle reminder: Diapers that are too tight or too small can cause friction, which may lead to diaper rash. Choosing the right size is also important to keep your baby comfortable and rash-free.

Dr. Karen recommends using Suzuran Baby Antibacterial Cut Cotton from day one. Here’s why:

  • 100% Pure Cotton: Made from 100% Japan Medical Standard Cotton, it is natural, non-allergenic, and biodegradable—perfect for a baby’s delicate skin.
  • Antibacterial Design: Its antibacterial properties inhibit the growth of bacteria, ensuring a sterile environment.
  • Certified Safe for baby: OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification guarantees it is free from fragrances, alcohol, and harmful chemicals, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
