Disadvantages of babies wearing diapers
For many new parents it may seem that diapering is a never-ending chore but the reality is that diapering your baby is as much a part of parenting as feeding. While it may seem that there is nothing more to it than slapping a clean, dry diaper on your baby’s bottom it is important and helpful to understand what you are doing and what you need.
Here are some disadvantages of diapering:
* Toxic chemicals are usually present in most single-use diapers because nearly all single-use diapers use sodium polyacrylate to absorb the moisture.
* Many people notice clear beads of gel on their baby's genitals after a diaper change and this material is sodium polyacrylate.
* An additional serious concern is about dioxin which is a by-product of the paper-bleaching process and may exist in single-use diapers. Dioxin in various forms has been reported to cause cancer, birth defects, skin diseases and liver damage.
* Harsh perfumes and chemical emissions can induce asthma-like symptoms in children and adults and now, researchers have found out that disposable diapers might also be a trigger for asthma.
* Constant use of diapers can also lead to darkening of skin around the diaper area.
