Product Information

The diaper may be too small if your baby shows signs of distress (for example, pulling at the diaper).

Babies come in all sizes and shapes, so diapers fit a little differently on every child. Pampers diaper sizes go by your baby’s weight—not age or gender—as weight is the most accurate way to determine the correct fit. Most of the time, your baby's weight will fall neatly within the range of a certain diaper size, producing a good fit. But in some cases, you might need to choose between two sizes, as the weight ranges can overlap. Pampers diaper sizes are determined by weight, and you may be wondering how to weigh your baby at home. You can use a standard bathroom scale and follow these basic steps to weigh your baby:Beyond your baby reaching a weight that’s over what’s recommended for his or her current nappy size, here are some signs your baby might be ready for a different size nappy: For example, if your baby weighs 4 or 5 kilograms a Pampers size 2 nappy might be the ideal size, but if you have a baby who is long and slim you might need to stay with the smaller of the two possible sizes (Pampers size 1) for the best fit. Most of the time, your baby's weight will fall neatly within the range of a certain nappy size, producing a good fit. In some cases, you might have a choice of two sizes, as the weight ranges can sometimes overlap. To find a diaper size for your baby, look for your baby’s weight (which you can determine at home or obtain from your child’s healthcare provider at each well-baby visit). For example, a size 1 diaper’s weight range is for a baby who is between 8 and 14 pounds, whereas a size 2 diaper’s weight range is between 12 and 18 pounds.

If the fastening tapes don’t reach the centre of the waistband, it’s time for a bigger size (if the tapes overlap, the nappy may be too big) In 1986, thin diapers made with absorbent gelling material were released. This made the average weight of a typical medium size diaper decrease by 50%. [2] To weigh your baby, you can use your normal bathroom scales. Take off your baby’s clothes and nappy, and then step on the scale while holding him or her.

Say Goodbye to Compromise, Say Hello to Pampers Pure Protection That Works" . Retrieved October 1, 2018. As you know, babies come in all sizes and shapes, so nappies fit a bit differently on every baby. To keep things simpler, Pampers nappy sizes are based on baby weight – not things like age or gender. Besides an increase in weight, there are additional signs that your baby might be ready for a larger diaper size. The following guidelines can help ensure your little one is wearing the correct diaper size:

The leg cuffs shouldn’t have any gaps. After the nappy is on, run two fingers around just inside the leg cuffs to get them in the proper position to help prevent leaks. If your baby regularly gets diaper rash, it may be because the diaper is too small and doesn’t keep the moisture away from their skin. If a nappy is too big, urine and poo may run out through gaps between the nappy and the skin before the nappy can absorb it. Although all Pampers diapers and pants are designed with optimal absorption and leak protection, the following are best for swimming and overnight protection. In 1961, P&G researcher Victor Mills disliked changing the cloth diapers of his newborn grandchild. He assigned fellow researchers in P&G's Exploratory Division in Miami Valley, Ohio to look into making a better disposable diaper. They were created by researchers at P&G including Vic Mills and Norma Lueders Baker. The name "Pampers" was coined by Alfred Goldman, Creative Director at Benton & Bowles.

In March 2010, Pampers announced a change to their popular Cruisers and Swaddlers diapers (Active Fit and New Baby respectively in Europe) with the addition of the new Dry-Max technology. Many parents reported [9] rashes and chemical burns as a result of using the new diapers. Procter & Gamble claim that pediatric experts have reviewed the Pampers with DryMax safety data and have seen no correlation between the reported rash and diaper. [10] In May 2010, a lawsuit was filed against Procter & Gamble based on the injuries allegedly caused by the diapers. [11] In September 2010, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission issued the results of its investigation into the matter, finding no evidence that these diapers cause diaper rash. [12] In the UK the case was brought to people's attention on consumer rights programme Watchdog in May 2010. In 1987, Pampers and Huggies both introduced frontal tape systems which allow repositioning of the lateral tape without tearing the diaper. [ citation needed] You may need to go up a size if you notice red marks on your baby’s tummy or thighs when you remove the nappy If you can't comfortably fit two fingers under the waistband of the fastened diaper, it's time for a bigger size. In 1998, Procter & Gamble introduced its largest diaper at the time, Pampers Baby-Dry Size 6. It was promoted in an advertising campaign featuring pediatrician and child development expert Dr. T. Berry Brazelton, who said to let the child decide when the time is right to potty train. The size 6 diapers were billed for growing toddlers. Huggies also introduced a size 6 diaper at this time.

If the fastening tapes don't reach the center of the waistband, it's time for a bigger size; if the tapes overlap, the diaper may be too big. After the nappy is fastened, you should be able to fit two fingers under the waistband. This means the nappy is fitted properly — not too snug, not too loose. Pampers New Baby nappies bring you Pampers' softest, most caring protection for sensitive newborn skin.
