1. Unfasten the tabs and fasten them back on themselves so they don’t stick yo your baby,but don’t remove the dirty diaper yet.
2. Wipe away excess poop from his genital area with the corner of the diaper.
3. Grasp your baby by the ankles and lift his bottom off the changing table.
4. Fold the dirty diaper in half under your baby, unsoiled side up.
5. Use a baby wipe or wet cloth to clean your baby’s front thoroughly. For a girl, be sure to wipe from front to back. This will help minimize the possibility that bacteria will get into her and cause an infection.
6. Lift both of your baby’s legs and clean his bottom with a wipe or wet cloth.
7. Swap a clean diaper for the dirty one. The clean diaper’s top should go under your baby’s bottom, and other half should come up between legs. Try not to bunch the diaper between your baby’s legs since it can cause chafing and discomfort. For newborns, avoid covering the umbilical cord.
8. Fasten the diaper at both sides with the tapes , making sure it’s snug, but not so tight that it pinches his skin. Check the manufacturer’s instructions for specific tips. Retape the soiled diaper around the contents, put it in a plastic bag and toss it in a trash.
