I am a working woman and my kid is 13 months old. Every night i use a diaper for him. he generally gets up in the morning at around 7 and does his potty when i may not b around so i find it conveninet to use the diapers.. I know it is not good to use the diapers everyday but i find it difficult to get up in the middle of the night everyday and change nappies. but nevertheless i want to stop this habit.. how shud i start.. PM replied. Hi Aishwarya,

Let me tell u that diapers is thebest and most hygienic option for the children. Who told u that diapers is not good for children. Chidlren only get rash by wearing diapers if u dont change the diaper after 3-4 hours. Cloth is the worst and unhygienic option. All the urine trickling down thru the legs onto the sheet, cloth is the worst and unhygienic option.

THE ONLY DISADV OF DIAPERS IS THAT ITS EXPENSIVE AND NOT TOO FEASIBLE FOR MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE. So if u can afford diapers then just keep using. Mother of 2 kids replied. I am a working mother too. Every morning around 7.30am I leave my kids at my mothers & go to work. My daughter stopped using nappies/diapers during the day when she was 2 yrs but during night she use diapers untill she was 3. I make her go to the toilet before she sleeps at about 9pm. The room she sleeps should not be too cold or else she will feel the need to urine during the early hours on the morning. The same goes for my son. He is 2yrs 10mths & does not use diaper at all. If the room or temp. is too cold he wud not be able to control & wud wet his bed.

Once they are up in the morning, the first thing they do is go to the toilet.

I hope this helps you.
