Question

Is it good to let your child go 3-5 minutes a day without a diper?

Answer 1

Oh yeah my son is out of a diaper for probably an hour + a day. I know his p**p and pee schedule so he doesnt go on the floor. It helps with diaper rash and its just gotta feel better. Just keep them on a towel or blanket if they are really little ones.

Answer 2

Absolutely!  Longer can be fine as well.  Just be prepared to handle the occasional accident.

Answer 3

Yes it helps prevent diaper rash.

Answer 4

yes its wonderful for them. it gives them a chance to air out and it will also prevent and help get rid of diaper rash!!!

Answer 5

I let all my girls run around for about thirty minutes a day without their diaper. I think its ok

Answer 6

Absolutely...I give my baby at least 10-20 minutes of 'naked time' a day. It lets her f***y dry out and I put her on a fuzzy blanket for whole body stimulation. She loves it.

Answer 7

hi yes you need to do this really, for however long you wish to. some parents have nappies off for a long time, and others a shorter time. remember though if its cold a cardi must be worn! this helps prevent nappy rash, as it lets the air get to the nappy area

Answer 8

how old is the child???

Answer 9

At least

Answer 10

babies and small children love nakie time... and it's good for their skin to air out.

My son got 30 minutes, 3x a day, because he was particularily prone to diaper rash.

I'd put him on a blanket or towel in the tub, completely naked, (no water!!!!) and suspend some toys over the tub for him to play with.

Answer 11

I allow it due to it keeps a babys bottom moist so it dont dry up and crack and end up having diaper rash.. :)
