Pair your diapers with gentle, low-ingredient baby wipes and a protective diaper cream or balm to keep delicate skin comfortable. At home, a soft changing pad and cover and an odour-locking diaper pail make every change easier, and a well-organised diaper bag keeps essentials on hand when you're out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right diaper size?
Diaper sizes are based on your baby's weight, and the ranges overlap so you can size up gradually. It's time for the next size if you notice frequent leaks, red marks on the legs or waist, or the tabs barely reaching the front. Use the weight-based size filter on this page to find the right fit.
What's the difference between diaper pants and tab diapers?
Tab diapers fasten at the sides and are easiest for young babies who spend a lot of time lying down. Diaper pants pull on like underwear, which makes changes quicker once your baby is rolling, crawling or standing. Many parents switch to pants for active older babies.
When should my child start using training pants?
Training pants are designed for the potty-training stage, usually from around 2 years old, when your child is starting to use the toilet but still has accidents. They pull up and down like underwear, helping your toddler practise independence.
What is SAP in diapers?
SAP (superabsorbent polymer) is the material inside most disposable diapers that absorbs liquid and locks it away from your baby's skin. It's widely used and considered safe for use in diapers. Birch reviews how each brand sources its SAP as part of our screening.
How often should I change my baby's diaper?
Newborns usually need a change every 2–3 hours, or whenever the diaper is wet, and right away after a bowel movement. Frequent changes help prevent diaper rash. As your baby gets older, you'll change them less often.
How do monthly diaper boxes work?
A monthly diaper box delivers a set supply of diapers at regular intervals, so you don't run out. Check each product page for the number of diapers per box, how deliveries are scheduled, and how to change sizes as your baby grows.
Are compostable diapers really compostable?
Diapers with TÜV compostability certification break down in industrial composting facilities, not usually in a backyard compost. Soiled diapers generally need a dedicated diaper composting service, so check what's available in your area or through the diaper brand.
Do you offer free shipping and returns on diapers?
Yes. Every order ships free with hassle-free returns, and first-time customers get 15% off at checkout. See our shipping and returns pages for details.
