The multiple functions of baby diapers
Before seeing babies around me, I thought that the diaper was not essential in the first months of a baby. My opinion changed when my niece was born 6 years ago. This nice piece of soft cotton can save you in many situations!What is a baby diaper?
The baby swaddle is a square or rectangular cotton swaddle, most often in double gauze, squared or embossed, which will prove very useful in your new life as parents! It comes in all sizes to suit your needs.
What is the baby diaper for?
It is very simple, very simple but so practical: its very soft material is very absorbent, it washes easily and dries very quickly. To slip into the diaper bag, it does not take up space and will always be useful during your walks!
Shoulder protection when burping
After each meal comes burping time, the swaddle will allow you to protect your clothes from baby's regurgitations. You just have to place a swaddle on your shoulder, plus its very soft composition does not irritate his face. Sometimes, only a sound will come out of his mouth, sometimes it will be more and you will be glad you thought to put the swaddle before. Choose the size that suits you best, small or large, both will be useful to you.Bandana bib

The swaddle can become baby's comfort blanket! Indeed, from his first days of life, he feels the swaddle on his parents' shoulder, which reassures baby. Then choose a color that you like because you risk seeing it every day for many years. And yes, even if you choose a comfort blanket of the heart, it is he who has the last word and who will adopt the one that suits him best: swaddle, pillowcase, or the pretty soft toy that you have chosen.

The maxi swaddle is the ally of all your walks when the sun has gone down and the temperatures are getting colder. Indeed, it can be used as a light blanket by providing a little warmth. If you have left the house with only the essentials but you have to change baby's diaper, there too the swaddle can be useful. Indeed, you can use it as a changing mat! Obviously the change will be less pleasant for baby, it is an additional solution which even if it is less practical than a nomadic changing mat can save in some situations.To breastfeed in public

The swaddle can help you do less laundry! Babies who haven't burped before falling asleep may spit up in their bed. To avoid changing the fitted sheet too often, it's a good idea to place a swaddle where your baby's head rests. It's also important to tuck the swaddle under the mattress so it doesn't move while your baby is sleeping.The diaper when baby grows

What not to do with a diaper:
Putting a diaper on the stroller. This is a practice that we often see but which can have consequences. Indeed, the air no longer circulates normally and the temperature inside the stroller rises very quickly. This can cause your baby to become dehydrated, so be careful and use an umbrella or place the stroller in the shade! So, are you convinced? I'm sure of it! The baby diaper is like a diaper bag or a travel changing mat! An essential for baby's first months, and well beyond! Don't hesitate to have several on hand:- In the diaper bag,
- In a clearly marked drawer at home,
- To calmly manage each little “accident” of daily life
