pee diapers- how do you know?

mela-sha · May 2010

I know this is really dumb, but how do you know if the diapers have pee in them. Sometimes they are really heavy, so I know. But I suspect I also end up throwing out and changing some un-peed ones.

Are they always heavy after the pee? I miss the indicator lines of pampers and have switched to luvs now.

Sorry about the dumb question....I should have figured it out by now. LOL

I can usually smell the pee too. Best indication.

I still can't tell. When LO pees on the table its clear and there's no smell. So I'm sure I'm missing some pee diapers.

I ebf and I think the really 'heavy' ones are the liquid poop AND pee (not just pee)

Diaper usually feels fat (kind of firm feeling), warmer than normal or extra heavy. Since we are using the pamper's with dry max you cant really smell the pee though.

I smell it, and when I change DS his diaper is discolored - when it's dry the inside of the diaper is bright white. (We use Pampers Swaddlers)

I squeeze the front of the diaper and if it's squishy then it's wet. I can also smell it.

We use Pampers Swaddlers and there is a yellow line on the outside that turns green when he's peed. It's a genius feature for new parents- we would have constantly been checking and changing without it.

We use huggies and they have a yellow line that changes to blue to indicate that it's a wet diaper. It has made my life so much easier as a new parent!

There's a bulge in the front. I don't change her until it gets big in the front. If you actually open the diaper, and you can't see the yellow, just smell it. You can definitely tell then.

We're using Pampers Swaddlers and there is a yellow line down the middle when its dry, but when its wet, the line turns blue.

Yes

I guess I don't really know when he pees. I just change him when I know he needs it or every 1 1/2 - 2 hours, whichever comes first. He's got a lot of pee in him so when he goes I can feel it. His pee doesn't smell so that doesn't help me. On occasion I'll wonder if he's peed and touch the diaper. I always immediately regret doing it. Why the heck would I willingly stick my hand in pee? I don't know.
