Disposable diapers can be a mom’s best friend. We can’t live without them, but what are they really made of? How do they work? Gretchen and Paige visit the Pampers facility in Cincinnati, Ohio to take apart a diaper and see what’s inside. Proctor and Gamble Senior Researcher, Joann Hoover shows the mommies several of the tests that Pampers diapers go through, including trapping and de-watering a synthetic BM. Since the average baby uses 7,500 diapers a year, this is good information to have! You can also visit Pampers Village, for all of the Pampers products available, and for help choosing which product is just right for your baby.

Everyone knows that new moms need help and support, but what about new dads? Armin Brott, the well known author of The New Father, A Dad’s Guide to the First Year, has appeared on many television shows, including Today, Fox News and CBS Overnight. He is also a Pampers Parenting Network Expert. And now, as part of our series sponsored by Pampers, “My Baby, Me & My World,” the Mommies asked him about his insights into the major issues shared by most new dads. His advice is great — we hope you enjoy!
