Does anyone else’s baby cry instantly when their nappy is wet and continues to cry and fuss until it’s changed? I’m changing so many nappies a day still (she is 14 weeks old). Any advice? Is this normal? Google says babies cry when nappies are wet but this does not seem the case when meeting other mums.

100% with you my little boy since day one has hated a wet nappy! Family/ friends think we are over exaggerating until they spend a few hours around baby and soon realise we aren’t lying about how many nappies we go through a week! Strangely enough he sleeps all night 🤷🏼♀️

My little one hates being in a wet/dirty nappy too, and other mums I've spoken too, have also said the same, think it's normal

You could maybe try different brands of nappy to see if that makes a difference

Mine hates being wet, she winges until she’s changed! We go through a lot of nappies!!
Thanks all. That’s reassuring to hear. I know it’s classes as normal but I haven’t met others experiencing the same thing which makes it hard sometimes. We get through a lot of nappies and don’t sit down for long!
we are in the process of doing this. Fingers crossed
totally and people think you’re exaggerating when you say they won’t sit in a wet nappy. Like literally she cries and arches her back until I change it

It’s literally the only time my little screams we’ve done a record of 240 nappies in a week tried all different brands too but it’s just the way he is he’s my first so we don’t know any different and tbh I’d rather him not like it means less chance of nappy rash and possibility of an easy potty train
we have tried the supermarket brands and now onto trying pampers 🤑🤦🏽♀️. I’m also hoping it means later down the line, potty training is easier 🙏.
and same for screaming! Weirdly she sleeps through the night too, the same as your little one. But she doesn’t wet all night 🤷🏻♀️

Hello! I would be interested to know if your babies grew out of this or if it continued? My 5 week old screams at a wet nappy until we change it and hoping it is a phase

yes he has! Never thought it would happen funnily enough me and my husband were laughing about the amount of nappies we used to go through. Trying to think back I’d say 5/6 months once he was playing with toys moving about more 🤷🏼♀️ I feel for you but I hope it doesn’t last long x
