About Nappies
A baby's nappy is composed of three layers. The liner, which comes
in contact with the skin of the baby and functions in collecting wastes;
the nappy, or the absorbent layer, and the wrap, which is located outside
and keeps the waste product from coming in contact with the baby's skin.
Wrap is also knows as covers orpilchers. Changing the cover every time
the nappies will be changed is usually not needed. Mothers can put a
clean one in the morning and then change it at night. Sometimes one
cover can last the whole day as long as the wastes do not touch the
cover.
