How old is the baby when they start using diapers?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Babies can use diapers from birth, and there are newborn-sized ones available. However, they need to be changed regularly. If urine stays on the buttocks for too long, it can cause a red bottom. It's best to wash the baby's bottom each time you change the diaper.
Do you have red dots on your baby's face that are as small as needle tips? You can take the baby to the nearest hospital for a check-up. It could be eczema or possibly heat rash from wearing too many layers. Don’t use milk to wash the baby’s face—use clean water instead.
Babies can be bathed every 4–6 days. After a bath, the baby will feel very comfortable because they’ve been wearing a lot of layers, and they tend to sweat easily from feeding.
