paper diaper

Baby's throwaway underwear

A paper diaper is a disposable diaper made with absorbent paper materials rather than cloth.

The term emphasizes the throwaway nature of the product, contrasting with traditional reusable cloth diapers: We packed plenty of paper diapers for the road trip.

Now more commonly called simply disposable diapers.
