A lot of parents have a lot of confusion and questions regarding their babies wearing underwear out of fear that it might be harmful to the baby’s health to get them wearing underwear earlier than necessary as a result of bacteria. However, the truth is that it’s entirely safe to get your baby to wear underwear a little before you start potty training them, as long as you make sure that they have “taken care of business” right before and that they will not soil themselves during the time she is wearing underwear.
Some parents prefer to get their babies used to wearing underwear even sooner, to instill a positive habit and get the baby used to the feeling of underwear ahead of time.
However, it is certain that your baby should start wearing underwear gradually when you begin potty training. In fact, it is not only safe but also encouraged as it may protect your infant from bacteria. Diapers are ideal for the growth of bacteria as a moist, warm and dark environment, which is why during the summer months or in warmer climates, getting your baby used to wearing breathable underwear is even desirable.
If you opt for baby underwear, make sure that you are doing it right. It is very important that baby underwear is made out of cotton material, as it’s soft, breathable and dry. Also, getting the size right is very important as you may limit your baby’s movements if the underwear is too small, or discourage her from wearing underwear as a result of the discomfort she experiences when the underwear is too big.
Worry not though – we have compiled the perfect selection of baby underwear that is both high-quality and cute, since cartoons and interesting patterns on the underwear may encourage your baby to wear it more.
