Please come and see how to use baby diapers as a sanitary pad.
The importance of disposable baby diapers to our generation cannot be overemphasized. Aside from taking care of baby’s poop and pee and all that kind of stuff, baby diapers have saved lives since the day women discovered ways to do more with these pads aside wrapping on baby’s cute little bum.
There are also adult disposable diapers in the market, for those who need them at night, sick on hospital beds, or just for comfort. Apart from the pampers baby diapers and Huggies that are common with Nigerian families, there are so many other brands in the market. Some great and some greater at keeping baby skin dry. There are awesome ones and others that are more awesome at staying fit on the body without falling off.
Some better at preventing spills/leakage than others. While some parents prefer Huggies, some pampers, others swear by other brands sold both online and in supermarkets, shops, and even open markets.
There are other brands of baby diapers that we can use as sanitary pads. Brands like:
The Molfix baby diapers
Virony baby diapers Etc.
In Nigeria, the Molfix is almost like taking over Huggies as many mums now swear by it. In some parts of the world, women with the heavy flow can wear period panties or menstrual diaper pad, unfortunately, these are not sold here in Nigeria.
ADVANTAGES OF USING BABY DIAPERS AS SANITARY PADS
For women with heavy menstrual flow, using pads can be tiring as they have to check every two hours to avoid being stained in public. There are pads for heavy flow but sometimes and in some months, even those pads cannot hold it together.
With diapers, there are no checks for sure. One diaper can be used for hours, some women have used just two diapers for a whole day even with very heavy flow.
1. Diapers absorb blood better than sanitary pads.
2. They are economical and give so much comfort and peace of mind during periods.
3. Diapers work magic by preventing foul smells
4. Diapers have different sizes, any woman can find the perfect size for her body and if after all said and done, baby diapers don’t fit, one can use adult diapers with even more benefits.
5. Comfort
6. Sharing. New mums don’t have to shop diapers and pads separately, just use one for all and save some money for other bay items.
HOW TO WEAR BABY DIAPERS ON AN ADULT WOMAN AS SANITARY PAD
To wear your baby diapers, all you need do is just trim them to fit. With a pair of scissors, you can take off the edges of the pad and the bands.
Place on a well-fitted ladies’ pant the way you place a sanitary pad, wear and keep moving without rushing to a restroom every hour or two. Adult diapers are great too but those are expensive compared to disposable baby extra-large (XL) diapers.
If you can afford adult diapers, good if not, get baby diapers size 3 or maxi depending on you, fit one in your under pant and dress up with peace and no check, no check.
Do you know anyone who has tried using baby diapers as sanitary pads? What’s their review? Good or not good?
My daughter, a young mother, was out and about one day and was caught at the zoo without a pad. So she used one of her sons diapers…and it worked so well for her. She shared her finding with me and it’s saved me many times as I have had heavy flow. I do add a pad and stick down the center of the diaper for extra protection, especially at night. But this diaper hack is total BRILLIANCE!!! This really needs to be spread to others!
Thanks for sharing.
That’s what I’ve been using since I gave birth and started having heavy Flow. I feel very much comfortable with it.
What a nice idea.I just tried this out, thank you.
You are welcome
