Quick Tips for Preventing Baby Diaper Leaks
All parents have to deal with their baby's diaper leaks on a daily basis. As you tuck your baby in and at 3 AM, you will hear him crying and whining only to discover a pool of messy poop. Changing diapers of your baby every two hours can literally drain your energy. To prevent your baby's diaper leaks, here is what you can do.
Why Does a Baby's Diaper Leak?
If your baby's diaper leaks happen usually during the night (and not daytimes), here is why that might be happening.
1. Potty Newbie
A baby is too young to be potty trained and does not have control over his reflexes, so he might poop anytime during the day and night. During the night, your baby's diaper may leak, however, if you see your baby's poop leaking out of his diaper during the day, you will need to give him potty training lessons.
2. Compression Leaks
If your baby's inserts are damp and fit too snugly, you'll notice your baby's diaper leaking when you carry him snugly around the hips. If your baby's onesies are too small, then also you will notice compression leaks. Hence, when making your baby wear a diaper, make sure it snugs around his waist and is not overly tight.
3. Diaper Material
The material of the diaper may also be the reason why your baby's diaper might be leaking. Some diapers are made from natural fibres like cotton and hemp while others aren't. Lower the absorbency limit, higher the leakage and vice versa. If your baby is wearing a poor quality diaper, it might leak.
4. Bad Fit
If the diaper size is too small or if it fights too tightly, has loose elasticity and doesn't wrap around the legs and bottom properly, then expect leakage.
5. Synthetic Washing
If you wash your baby's diapers using synthetic or chemical-based detergents, it will cause diaper leaks. So, it is best to avoid diaper rash creams and use plant-based detergents for washing since they are water soluble.
How to Prevent Your Baby's Diaper Leakage
There are various reasons for a baby's diaper leaks but knowing isn't enough; it's the prevention that counts. Here are a few tips to prevent baby diaper leakage during the nights and to make your baby sleep peacefully.
1. Get Diapers in Right Size
If you notice runny diapers of your baby often, then maybe it's time to go up a size (or two). For example, if your baby's diapers are a size 2, just before bedtime make sure to put on a size four. This will absorb the poop and prevent any leaks at night.
2. Maintain a Proper Schedule
If you're experiencing that the instance of runny diapers is increasing day by day, then it may be because of your feeding schedule. Take careful note of lunchtimes, meals before and after naps, and just before going to bed. Avoid giving your toddler any drinks or juices before bedtime to prevent leaks. Don't eliminate baby formula though, since that's a necessity. We're talking anything besides baby formula here. Another handy tip is to let your toddler drink the beverage (or juice) at least an hour before bedtime.
3. Change the Diapers Often
To prevent infections and diaper rash in your baby, it is recommended that you change his diapers often, before bedtime, especially. Don't leave on the daytime diaper when your baby is about to call it a night. That way his bottom will feel comfy, he will sleep well and won't cry at 2 am while you are fast asleep.
4. Use Overnight Diapers
If regular diapers are not giving your baby any relief, it's time to change the strategy. Instead of opting for diapers in the bigger size, choose overnight diapers for him. Overnight diapers are more absorbent, last longer, and work throughout the night. Buy a box, and your baby will be set for a month of leak-less nights.
5. Think Booster Diapers
What if the overnight diapers don't work either? Your baby might be an exception, but with a little boost, those diapers will do the job. You can invest in diaper booster pads. Diaper booster pads serve as an extra layer of defence and absorb up to 8 ounces of fluid before letting the diaper below take charge.
6. Put On the Diaper Correctly
"My newborn's diaper keeps leaking" - Is this the problem which you keep telling your neighbours and relatives, thinking someone will have a solution? The problem may be in his diapers getting packaged with folded backs. Besides folded backs, another reason might be not putting on the diaper correctly. This may mean a loose fit or a diaper having elasticity. Regardless, the way you prep your baby up during the night makes a huge difference.
Here are a few tips on how to make sure that the diaper is put on correctly.
Wrap the diaper well around his waist and legs, ensuring that it is fit snugly to prevent diaper leakage on the side. The waist area should be below the baby's belly button.
Check the edges of the diaper cuffs to make sure that the diaper is wrapped neatly and not tucked inside.
Make the diaper look a bit bigger by making the tabs overlap a little by positioning downward.
Use diapers made from natural fibres like cotton, hemp, and bamboo. Make sure the diaper material is high-absorbent and use plant-based detergents to make them last longer.
For cloth-based diapers, invest in diaper inserts for an extra layer of absorption.
7. Prepare for the Unexpected
Be ready for the moments when you don't expect your baby's diaper to leak, but it happens anyways. Make sure to stock up on extra clothes and a diaper bag dispenser (which is used to collect and dispose of poop). Invest in baby wipes and overnight diapers and don't forget to get inserts/booster pads to prepare for baby diaper leaks overnight.
These are your answers to why baby diaper leaks happen and how to prevent them. If your baby's diaper leaks every night, these tips will go a long way in helping you get sound sleep and make sure your baby naps comfortably and fuss-free.

Here are a few ideas that that can be easy enough for your tot to do on his own or under your supervision (especially where scissors are involved!). Whatever the case, oodles of fun are guaranteed!
1. Paper Pinwheel
You must have made and played with these as kids - now it’s time to teach your little one how to make a wonderful little pinwheel that moves with the wind!
What You Will Need
A sheet of paper (decorated or plain)
Unsharpened pencil with eraser
Crayons
Scissors
Ruler
Sharpened pencil
Ball pin
How to Make
Start off by cutting a square from the sheet of paper, with each side measuring 15 cm, and decorate the square with crayons.
Mark the centre of the page, measuring or eyeballing it. Using the ruler and pencil, draw two diagonal lines which extend from one corner to the other. The lines should cross at the centre of the page.
Once the lines have been drawn, mark a point on each line (about 7 cm away from each corner). Cut on the line from each corner up to the marked points.
Erase pencil marks (except for the centre point).
Now using the pin, punch a hole in the centre as well as at the tips of the corners.
Use the pin to poke through the point at one corner and curl it towards the centre without folding it (to look like a flower petal). Hold it in place and curl the remaining three towards the centre.
Push the pin through the centre hole. Hold a pencil with an eraser on a flat surface and align the centre of the pinwheel against the eraser, and push the pin into the eraser.
The pinwheel is now ready! Blow at it or hold it against a light breeze to see it move!
2. Paper Plate Mask

What You Will Need
Paper plates
Pencil
Sketch pens
Paint and paintbrushes
Decorative materials like glitter, stickers, etc.

Use a pencil to draw the shape of the mask on the paper plate. The shape and size should be large enough to accommodate your child’s facial features. You can find various designs on the Internet and even print out a design for reference.
Cut out the mask and the eye-holes. To get symmetrical holes, fold the plate in half lightly, and cut along the outlines.
Paint or decorate the mask using sketch pens, paints, glitter and so on. Place it on a newspaper or another paper plate to avoid a mess.
Once done, punch holes on either side of the mask so that a ribbon can be strung through it. Alternately, you can also stick a paper straw (decorated with paint) on a side, for your child to hold up the mask.
Your child can now pretend to be different characters using his mask!

Sheet of plastic
How to Make
Start off by shaping the sheet of cardboard into an attractive shape - you can leave it as a plain square or rectangle or try different shapes like that of a heart, flower, or your child’s favourite cartoon character.
Decorate the sheet using sketch pens, paint, and other decorative materials. Do the same for the pistachio shells. You can paint it with different colours and patterns, and get really creative with it.
Glue the pista shells on to the sheet of cardboard in the pattern you prefer, but ensure that there is ample space in between for pasting a photograph.
Once dry, paste a photograph on the sheet, such that the shells are framing the image.
Cover the photograph with a piece of clear plastic to protect it from any scratches or damage. The piece of plastic needs to be bigger than the photograph so as to cover it from all sides.

5 MYTHS About Baby Skin All Of Us Have Believed As Moms!
As moms, we always want to push our limits to give our little one everything they deserve and more. While all of us are equipped with natural instincts to care for our babies, there is often an element of doubt. Are we doing the right thing or not? To allay our fears, we lap up advice and recommendations by others who have ‘more experience’. But ironically, this activity frequently leaves us even more confused and also makes it harder to tune back to our intuition!
Along with the mother, a new baby has countless well-wishers in the form of chachis, kakis, nanis, dadis and neighbourhood ladies who love to pitch in when it comes to looking after your baby. But as a new mom, we need to be wary of old-wives tales and myths regarding baby care, particularly when it comes to his skin. Your baby's skin is soft, thin, and much more sensitive than adult skin. Because of its fragility, it is also prone to losing moisture up to five times faster than an adult’s skin. While many age-old beliefs about your baby’s skin may stand true, and have been followed by our elders for years,many of them are not.
Let's Bust Some Myths Now, Shall We?
Myth 1: Oil Massage For Newborns is a Must!
Fact: The original purpose of an oil massage was to moisturise your baby’s skin and stop it from drying out. Well, it is certainly true that moisturisation is very important for your baby’s skin, especially in the winter when the likelihood of skin dryness increases even further. But an oil massage may not be suitable for every baby, particularly if they have hereditary eczema, or the weather is too warm. Our baby’s sweat glands are not developed as soon as they are born which means they are more prone to conditions like prickly heat. Packaged oils may also contain certain ingredients that can trigger an allergic reaction or infection in your baby as their immune systems are underdeveloped at this stage. The bottom-line is that you must tread with caution in deciding whether or not to use oil on your baby’s skin.
To nourish your baby’s skin, it is best to stick to a gentle and nourishing body lotion such as the Baby Dove Rich Moisture Baby Lotion which is designed to suit all baby skin types. This lotion helps lock in moisture for a full 24 hours and also has a pleasant fragrance that your baby will love. The lotion soothes dry skin from first use itself. Your baby’s delicate skin stays soft and supple for the entire day. Since all Baby Dove products are hypoallergenic, the risk of developing allergies is also minimised.
Myth 2: Scrubbing Skin With Gram Flour Is Good For Babies
Fact: It is widely believed that gram flour, when rubbed on baby skin, will rid the baby of fine body hair. But there have been several reported cases where gram flour actually irritated baby skin and led to cracking and redness! As for the body hair, most babies lose this fine hair eventually anyway.
Myth 3: Use Antiseptics For Infections
Fact: This may seem like the logical thing to do, but over-the-counter antiseptics are one of the most common cause of skin irritation in babies! Washing delicate baby skin with soap and water is sufficient to maintain hygiene. Similarly, soaking clothes in antiseptics is a bad idea too. It is best to see a dermatologist to figure out a baby-safe cure for any infection your baby may be facing.
Myth 4: Don’t Use Diapers As They Cause Rashes
Fact: Diapers are amazing, undoubtedly. They keep your baby dry and let you get some sleep. But as new mothers, we are often told that diapers cause rashes and redness in our baby’s skin! Well, the truth is that maintaining ample hygiene and changing diapers frequently is an effective way to not let this happen.
While changing diapers, use Baby Dove Rich Moisture Baby Wipes to clean the diaper area effectively. These are alcohol-free and really soft – perfect for sensitive baby bottoms. The wipes which areas gentle as water effectively remove impurities while instantly moisturising baby skin. Then, apply Baby Dove Rich Moisture Diaper Rash Cream to provide instant comfort from irritation. The cream neutralises pH in seconds and provides instant comfort from the very first use. This cream forms a protective layer to shield your baby's delicate skin from any causes of irritation. This is also easier to spread than other diaper creams which makes it ideal for daily use.
Myth 5 : Baby Will Have Fair Skin If The Pregnant Mom Drinks Milk Infused With Saffron
Fact: Adding saffron to milk is a common practice in many Indian households. However, there is no evidence to prove that it helps lighten your baby's skin complexion. Skin colour is determined by genetics and practices such as these have no scientific basis.
So moms, while it is great to stick to traditions and customs, do so with caution. It is more important to trust yourself as you are the one closest to your baby and the one who understands all his needs the best. Just put your foot down and do not follow a baby-care ritual if your heart tells you not to.
Remember, you will not be doing anything ‘wrong’ or ‘imperfect’ by refusing to do something your motherly instincts don’t allow. As Baby Dove says, there is no right or wrong way of being a mother, just your way. Read more
