Many mothers can't tell when their baby should stop using diapers, and it is not clear what harm it will be if they stop using diapers too late. Most mothers feel that when the baby reaches a certain age, after training, he learns to control his own urine, so naturally he will quit diapers. In fact, the process is not as easy as it seems.
01 The baby is still using diapers at the age of five, and the hospital examination found that fertility was affected
Ms. Zhou's son, 5 years old, is still using diapers, according to Ms. Zhou, she tried to give the child a diaper when she was more than two years old, but the child could not control the urination behavior. At that time, I also took the child to see a doctor, and the doctor told her after the examination that the child's urinary control ability is weak, and you can give the child a diaper later, and slowly exercise the child's urinary control ability during this period.
Later, Ms. Zhou also did not stop exercising the child's ability to control urine, but the child was always unable to control it well, it was fine during the day, and it was easy to wet the bed at night, even if it was five years old, so Ms. Zhou still gave him diapers to avoid changing pants. Ms. Zhou saw that the child had not been able to control his own urine, plus he was already five years old, it was time to stop, otherwise he would be laughed at by others, so she took the child to the doctor again.
When the doctor learned that Ms. Zhou's son was five years old and still using diapers, he was first shocked, and then he quickly arranged various examinations for him, and the final examination results showed that the child's fertility was affected to a certain extent, because it failed to get a good exercise in the ability to control urine, so the functions were weaker, coupled with the long-term use of diapers, the child's urinary system was also seriously infected, and next week Ms. understood why the child urinated every time it was always intermittent, and the color was darker, and there were some bubbles, she also thought it was caused by fire, It's really confusing.
After that, the doctor said that he could only diaper as soon as possible, and actively exercise the child's ability to control urine and mobilize the physiological system to coordinate the operation, otherwise if he continued like this, the child's situation would only become more serious.
02 Baby should stop using diapers before this age
Usually, the baby to about one and a half years old, parents to control the urine training, if the learning ability is stronger, and the body functions are normal, then after this stage, they can carry out normal spontaneous defecation, may not be able to master the ability to control urine at the beginning, but after several months of training, the baby can basically master the autonomous defecation at the age of two years.
When the baby is about two years old, the mothers can quit their diapers during the day and continue to use them at night, which is to prevent them from wetting the bed at night, because at this stage, the baby's urine control subconscious is still relatively weak. Of course, if the baby's learning ability is strong, then at the age of one, you can also quit diapers during the day.
Wait until the baby is about three years old, then it is necessary to completely stop the diaper, whether it is day or night, can not continue to use, otherwise it will affect the development of the baby's physiological system, but also cause other or large or small impacts.
03 If the baby has not quit diapers after the age of three, what is the harm to the baby?
Generally speaking, babies around three years old, their ability to defecate independently has been very strong, if the baby has not quit diapers at this time, it means that the baby's urinary control ability and urine control awareness is very weak, and if there is no continued exercise, this ability will continue to degenerate, and finally there may be a serious "incontinence" situation.
In addition, due to the baby's long-term use of diapers, it is likely to lead to the baby's urinary system is infected, if the mothers do not pay attention, it will lead to infection exacerbation, and finally even affect fertility, because these aspects of the reproductive system are mutually affected, if the urinary system infection is serious, fertility will be more or less affected.
There is also an aspect that parents have overlooked, that is, some children have been affected by their walking posture due to long-term use of diapers. Because the child's posture will turn outward when wearing diapers, it will affect the development of the leg shape for a long time, and it may seriously appear X-shaped legs or 0-, Y-shaped legs, and even long and short legs.
Therefore, mothers must train their babies to quit diapers before the age of three, and cannot delay for too long, otherwise it will have a greater impact on the baby, and some of the harm may affect them for life.
When training the baby's ability to control urine, parents must be patient, do not lose their temper with the baby, and do not use violence, otherwise the baby will be frightened and dare not continue to exercise, thus affecting the formation of the ability to defecate autonomously. Step by step to guide the baby to control urine, you can use a variety of methods, such as behavior imitation, watching animations, books, etc., or handed over to a professional doctor to guide, rather than you say a word, so that the baby does not know how to correctly control urine, visible method is still very important.
