Baby Diapers: All-Day Dryness, All-Night Peace

Getting ready for a baby takes a lot of planning, preparation, and supplies. One of the most important baby supplies parents need is diapers.

Our selection includes leading brands such as Huggies, Pampers, Luvs, Cuties and more. With a wide range of sizes from preemie infant to toddler and older, you are sure to find the fit and quality you need.

Diapers for Infants 0-12 Months

Diapers for healthy infants from 0-12 months come in many sizes, which are based on the baby's weight, not age. Be aware that once babies start to grow and develop, they can change sizes quickly. Here are a few tips for finding the right diapers for your baby or toddler:

• Find the right size: Base the size on your baby’s weight and ensure the fit includes no gaps at the legs or waist. The fit should be snug, but it shouldn’t leave red marks.
• Prevent diaper rash: Frequent changes keep the baby’s skin as dry as possible. Using diapers that have high absorbency and a layer that wicks moisture away is crucial.
• Prioritize materials: Choose diapers made of soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic materials that are free of toxins to ensure your baby’s comfort and prevent irritation.
• Use indicators: Find diapers that have a wetness indicator—a line that changes color when it’s time for a change. Most major brands include this feature.

Toddler Pull-Up Diapers

The average age for babies to start potty training is 18-36 months. However, some children might not be ready until after age three. Once your child indicates a readiness, you should start using pull-up diapers to make using the toilet as easy as possible. During the training process, keep a potty chair in a readily accessible place, preferably the bathroom. Don’t pressure the child and don’t abandon pull-up diapers too soon – especially overnight. As with all diapers, fit is important so make sure there is a good fit at the legs, and the waist should fit snugly but not be constricting. Choose pull-up diapers that are light and flexible for daytime moving around and ones with extra absorbency for overnight. For any questions about potty training your toddler, consult your pediatrician.

Preemie Baby Diapers

Preterm babies who weigh less than six pounds typically need special care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and special attention when they come home. In addition to an enhanced formula to help them catch up with weight and development, preemies need diapers that are designed for their size and fragile skin. And even though preemie babies are tiny, they need a good fit to prevent leaks. Many brands offer an extra-small size for preterm babies 2-4 lbs.
