Is it ok for an infant to potty 3 or 4 times before the diaper has to be changed?

Answer 1

it's not like you really know how many times the child is going "potty" anyway. Sorry for all the rude answers people gave. With my infants I always change before and after naps. With my toddlers I go more by the 2-3 hour rule. Good Luck. Some kids are more sensitive to it. Get poop off right away.

Answer 2

I think not. You run the risk of diaper rash and that can be awful for the little one. You don't have to change the first time it wets. But poop should be done immediately But I wouldn't let a baby in wet diaper for long. Even with the new diapers it still is against the babies bottom.

Answer 3

Urination, maybe once or twice and occasionally three times, depending on how much time in between. The thing is though, you dont want piss to sit in a pamper attached to a baby. Soaked urination causes irritation, itchyness, infections, and a bad stench as strong as pneumonia.

Feces should be changed right away regardless each time. Unless of course, it`s still coming. Then you wait until it finishes, then change the diaper.

Answer 4

A newborn puts out a lot of urine and needs to be changed often because the diapers are very small and their skin is very sensitive. A toddler can if need be urinate twice in the same diaper since it has a higher capacity but this is not recommended. Feces should Always be changed promptly!!

Answer 5

You know when you notice that the baby is wet or poopy then you should change it. Really all that feces and urination is not good for thier skin. Hopefully you use a really good diaper that pulls the wetness away from the baby. When they get up in the middle of the night I would change them everytime. Honestly and I'm not trying to be ugly here but would you want to sit in that stuff???

Answer 6

Naveena- the superb answer is "each and every time its moist/dirty". For a new child, that could want to advise as a lot as twelve circumstances in an afternoon. modern-day stats in my own existence: Goddaughter a million (3 weeks previous) undemanding is 9 alterations. Godsons 2 and three (6 month previous twins), each and every is modified about 8 circumstances an afternoon until eventually the 'poop monster' strikes. Nephew (15 months previous) 6 diapers in an afternoon is time-honored. strong success!

Answer 7

I have been taking care of children for 31 years. I am going to tell you generally no. Like our potty theirs contains acids which if left in place too long will cause a rash that can turn very nasty and become sore and uncomfortable. If you are out and about it can be let go while traveling but careful care must be taken to cleanse properly. Preventive care is necessary to keep things under control. I highly recommend using Destin ointment and Caldecene powder together. I always did the trick for me. Good luck and Congratulations.

Answer 8

If you are talking about urination - yes. Just don't wait too long or let it get too soaked. But poop must be changed right away.
Think how many times your child will pee throughout the night before morning when you can change him.
Unless you know exactly when your child pees it is impossible to change him after each time. Every 2-3 hours like others have said should do it.

Answer 9

It's more about volume than length of time. If you are using disposables, you'll get the feel of how much wetness is too much by testing how squishy the diaper gets. If your baby is prone to rashes, you will need to change them sooner.

Always change a poopy diaper right away.

Answer 10

Every two hours or if they have a BM. I think as long as the diaper isn't to heavy with urine that it can wait, and if you change it every 2 hours it wont by to heavy. Diapers of today are wonderful they help pull the moisture away.
