There are differing accounts of what kind of 'diapers' were used by Native Americans.

Diapers generally were cloth or animal skin wrappings (swaddling cloths) with dried grass or moss placed in strategic areas to trap body waste.

Unlike European's who let the diapers go unchanged for days (weeks in cold weather) Native Americans changed or cleaned them as they became soiled with waste, cleaning the child at the same time. .
