As a sigurista parent, fulfilling different roles can be a challenge when you run multiple tasks, yet
so little time and energy left to do it all. This can sometimes leave you to wonder, “Am I choosing the right products for my baby?”. Although it’s only natural to worry when your baby’s health, hygiene, and comfort are threatened when the products you thought were good enough to help protect them.
In order to prevent and alleviate discomfort, it is important to identify common infant health
problems such as colds, coughs, fevers, and vomiting. Your baby might also experience common
concerns like diaper dermatitis, also known as diaper rash.
Opting for diapers that aren’t able to provide baby’s needs not only puts their skin at risk of babad
and kulob but it also leaves your pockets dry — spending more in the long run in search of the
right diaper. This begs the questions, what is diaper rash and how do you prevent it?
What is Diaper rash?
Diaper rash is an inflammatory skin condition that affects the most sensitive part of your baby’s
body. It is often caused by prolonged exposure of the skin to wetness and moisture.
According to Dr. Krissy Dim-Jamora, a board-certified dermatologist, Deputy Director of
Aesthetics by The Medical City and Head of the Skin Cancer Unit of Medical City, baby’s skin is
thinner, and at risk of babad compared to adult skin. Dr. Krissy mentioned, “When [your] baby’s
skin is left to soak in a moist, wet environment for a long time, the skin can break down. This
results in redness, pain, and swelling.”
With temperatures that can get as hot as 42 degrees Celsius in a tropical country like here in the
Philippines, diaper rashes can also happen more often during the dry season. “The moist
environment of the urine and feces creates a nasty environment for baby’s thin, gentle skin.”, as
described by Dr. Krissy. If your baby’s skin is unable to breathe due to trapped heat, a diaper that
does not allow air to flow can leave them feeling kulob.
When unattended, a chronic diaper rash can result in thickening of the skin, pigmentation
problems and worst of all, a chronic wound that may lead to an infection. Dr. Krissy also adds,
“Keeping baby’s skin healthy will save parents money from doctor’s visits and dermatology
creams.” Diaper rashes don’t only cost parents’ additional expenses, but it also costs baby’s skin
health, comfort, and sleep development.
To protect your baby from babad and kulob, it’s best to practice measures and use quality diapers
with the proper technology to prevent diaper rash from happening.

delicate skin and allow good ventilation in the private area. “The diaper should draw the moisture
from urine away from the baby’s skin so that the baby does not sit in the moist environment. The
diaper should be able to last the whole night of peeing without the urine spilling onto the bed. This
will allow the parents to have a good night’s sleep.” No wonder Smart Parenting moms nationwide
