Clear Crystals in My Lo's Diaper

Anyone ever see clear crystals in their LO's diaper? I have been finding clear little teenie teenie jello like crystals in my daughters diaper over the last week. Not every diaper change but every now and again. Any idea what these are? She's eating fine and gaining weight fine. I thought it might be the gel in the diapers we were using but we changed brands and I am still seeing them.

What can I do next?

Hi D.
They r from the diaper. You probably should go to the next size up. It is when they pee a lot the diaper brakes down. I called the diaper company when it happen to me. If you still have the bag or box call them and tell them they will send you coupons for free diapers. Hope this helps god bless Esta

I believe it's the inside of the diaper. Sometimes my daighters diaper would leak in the middle of the night and i would wake up to a mess of these little crystal like things. Since she is off the bottle now, we don't have this issue becuase she does not get a drink during the night. I also went up one size in the daiper to prevent this.

I did see those when my nephew was in pullups that had color changing when he had urine in the diaper. I don't know if that is what you are using but just thought I would throw it out there.

Is the diaper REALLY full. I can be stuff from the inside of the diaper. The absorbant filling sometimes falls out.

it's the stuff in the diaper

You thought right. It is the gel in the diapers. All brands use the same stuff so if she gets really wet you're going to see them no matter what brand you use.

It has to be the diapers..my son's diapers would do that. I just started to check him more often. It did stop. I also changed him to another brand. Good luck
