How wet can my son's diaper be before it needs to be changed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Modern diapers have wick like capabilities that pull moisture away from the skin. If your diapers have this capabilities they may last for a while. However, the longer a moist diaper remains close to the skin, the more likely the skin is to break down and become inflamed/infected. You sort it out over time with your own experience.
