Huggies® Every Little Bottom is committed to getting diapers to babies in need

Lawndale News Chicago's Bilingual Newspaper - Local NewsThe first peer-reviewed study and published works focusing on diaper need was released in the Journal of Pediatrics and found that almost one in three mothers reported diaper need, with significantly higher need among Hispanic women; this supports Huggies® Every Little Bottom’s 2010 survey.

An adequate supply of diapers may provide a tangible way of reducing parenting stress and Huggies® Every Little Bottom is committed to getting diapers to babies in need through their founding sponsorship of the National Diaper Bank Network.

The results from this study provide evidence of the substantial prevalence of diaper need in low-income families. This study calls attention to the fact that an insufficient supply of diapers is not only a risk for poor infant and child health, but also maternal mental health, potentially diminishing maternal sense of competence, and increasing maternal stress, which ultimately leads to potential negative impacts on child health and development.
