Best Clothing to Put on Your Baby for Diaper Changes

Changing diapers is a major part of being a new parent, and while it may not be your favorite thing to do, you want to take care to keep both you and your baby clean during the process. Whether you have a calm, compliant baby or a wiggle monster, below are some tips regarding the best clothing to put on your baby to make diaper changes easier:

The Classic Onesie

The onesie was designed with diaper changes in mind. Unsnap at the bottom, diaper off, clean everything up, diaper on, snap back, and you're done. Simple and efficient.

Of course, just because your baby wears a simple onesie doesn't mean they can't still look stylish. Brands like Pact make some amazing baby clothes that are both functional for diaper changes and will keep your baby looking cute as a button. Check out organic baby clothing by Pact for some great options.

Flexible Waistbands

If your child wears pants or shorts, diaper changes can be a hassle when you need to unbutton and unzip things to get a diaper change done. Instead, look for pants and shorts that have flexible waistbands. Some flexible waistbands use elastic, but others use natural fibers that provide stretch for easy pull-downs and pull-ups. Once again, organic baby clothing by Pact comes to mind for some amazing options.

Another benefit of using pants and shorts with flexible waistbands is that they can be a potty training tool. As your child gets more comfortable with the idea of pulling pants up and down without having to wrestle with buttons and clasps, they may find adapting to potty training easier.

Swaddles

If you still have a newborn, swaddles are the way to go for quick changes. Swaddles are easy to learn, they undo in seconds, and they can be re-fastened just as quickly. As an added benefit, swaddles are recommended by pediatricians to help new babies feel calm and comfortable, so it's a win-win for both you and the baby.
