Best Baby Diaper in Singapore

1. Baby Express Besuper Tape Diaper

Founded by a working mother, Baby Express’ goal is to make parenting a breeze for working mums. Their Besuper Tape Diaper features a three-layer design and a double elastic side panel protection that will keep your baby secured from unwanted leaks! Designed with a wetness indicator which are colored lines that change color when the diaper is wet indicating that it’s time for a nappy change.

What we like about this diaper is that it has a super absorbent core which is composed of fluff material and chemical crystals known as Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) to soak up and trap fluid. The fluff, made of chlorine-free wood pulp, distributes fluid across the diaper. Meanwhile the SAP absorbs and locks liquids in the core and away from the baby. Even better, it is made with aloe liners, ensuring that it is gentle on your baby’s delicate skin. To keep your baby feeling fresh and comfy, the Besuper Tape Diaper also contains a breathable spun-bond top sheet and a non-woven back sheet.

What we love about BeSuper:

• Super dry 3D pearl embossing top sheet
• Super Absorbent Core (Germany SAP + chlorine-free wood pulp)
• Magic ADL layer helps urine distribute and absorb faster

13. Applecrumby – Diaper in Singapore

With the use of elemental chlorine gas, a lot of mass-produced baby diapers are bleached. Thus, leaving traces of dioxins behind. Dioxins are bad for the environment and pose many serious health risks to the growth of your baby. That’s why we recommend the Applecrumby™ Diapers because they are 100% chlorine free. This makes them safe for both your baby’s bottom and the environment! You can also choose between three different options: Pull Up SlimDry EasyDay, Pull Up Premium Overnight, and Tape Overnight. You just need to select the size that is best for your baby because they are all chlorine-free.

14. Nepia Genki Diapers

One of the best aspects of Nepia Genki diapers is the multi-channel absorption layer.  It is made possible by the inner layer having a combined texture of dots and waves. As a result, these baby diapers are so absorbent that they can keep your baby dry for up to 12 hours. We also liked the presence of a wetness indicator. This eliminates the need for constant checking to see if it needs to be replaced. And best of all, your baby won’t be itchy while wearing these diapers because they are as soft as baby skin!

While we loved the Genki diapers, we also recommend checking out Nepia’s WHITO line. These diapers are the premium version of Nepia, with absorption rates that are 2-3 times faster than Genki! Furthermore, the breathability is approximately 2-3 times greater than that of other Japanese brand diapers. WHITO is the right choice if you want your baby’s nappies to be more absorbent, breathable, and thinner.

What we love about Genki diapers:

• Super absorbent
• Has a super elastic waistband for a better fit on babies
• Powerful back and side leakage block

FAQ: Baby Diaper in Singapore

How do I choose the right diaper size for my baby?

Diaper sizes are usually based on your baby’s weight. Refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines on the diaper packaging, and make sure the diaper fits snugly around the legs and waist without being too tight. 

How often should I change my baby’s diaper?

Newborns typically need diaper changes every 2-3 hours or whenever they’re wet or soiled. As babies grow, they may require fewer changes. Always check the diaper’s wetness indicator or feel the diaper to gauge when it’s time for a change.

How can I prevent diaper rash?

Change diapers promptly when wet or soiled, clean your baby’s bottom gently with a mild wipe or cloth, and allow the skin to air dry before putting on a fresh diaper. Using a diaper rash cream before you put your baby’s diaper can also help. If these things still do not work, you might need to consider getting a new diaper.

What to avoid when buying diapers?

Avoid diapers with fragrances, lotions, or certain chemicals, especially if your baby has sensitive skin. Opt for hypoallergenic or fragrance-free options to reduce the risk of skin irritation. 

Do remember that every baby is unique, so finding the best diapers for them can also be a bit of a trial-and-error process. Pay attention to how your baby’s skin reacts to a particular diaper brand, and if you notice any signs of irritation or discomfort, consult your paediatrician for guidance.
