Product Information

If your baby regularly gets nappy rash it may be because his or her nappies are too small and don’t hold the moisture away from the skin 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. 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.

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: 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] Say Goodbye to Compromise, Say Hello to Pampers Pure Protection That Works" . Retrieved October 1, 2018. The diaper may be too small if your baby shows signs of distress (for example, pulling at the diaper). 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. [ citation needed]

Wondering which diaper size to choose for your little one? To help you make this important decision, Pampers worked with thousands of babies and their parents, taking nearly a half-million diaper-fit measurements to create just the right range of sizes for every family. We want to make it easier to find the perfect diaper for your growing baby, and our research resulted in a diaper size and weight chart to guide you in the right direction! How Diaper Sizes Work If you can't comfortably fit two fingers under the waistband of the fastened diaper, it's time for a bigger size. If the nappy is too small, it can leak because there isn’t enough absorbency for the volume of pee or poo When your little one is wiggling or crawling, beginning to walk, or running with ease, you’ll need something that you can change in a hurry. So, with active babies, consider diapers or pants that are 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. [5]

For example, you might like Pampers Cruisers 360° or Pampers Easy Ups. For Overnight Protection and Swimming Convenience Did you know your newborn’s skin can be up to 50% thinner than adult skin? That makes it extra sensitive to friction and irritation. In 1993, Pampers introduced training underwear, but the Pampers Trainers were a short lived product. Pampers did not sell training underwear again until the introduction of Easy Ups. [3] 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. 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.

We’ve also included information on our diaper size comparison chart to help answer two common questions:

In 1982, P&G developed elasticized single and double gussets around the leg and waist areas to aid in fitting and in containing urine or stool which had not been absorbed. In fact, the first patent for the use of double gussets in a diaper was in 1973 by P&G. [1] In 1982, Pampers introduced an elasticized wingfold diaper with elastic leg gathers and refastenable tapes which was a cross between the early 1960s design and the modern hourglass shape, a feature that was first introduced on Luvs in 1976 and evolved into an industry standard in 1985. [ citation needed] 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.In 1987, Pampers and Huggies both introduced frontal tape systems which allow repositioning of the lateral tape without tearing the diaper. [ citation needed] Pampers Splashers are highly absorbent without swelling, so the fit and feel don’t change when your little one is playing in the water. 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. Once you find the best nappy size for your little one using our nappy size chart, choosing the right nappy will be a breeze. Although all Pampers diapers and pants are designed with optimal absorption and leak protection, the following are best for swimming and overnight protection.
