When was the baby diaper invented? My mother-in-law says one thing, I read something else.

I understand that disagreements with your mother-in-law can be tiring. Modern disposable baby diapers were patented in the 1950s by Marion Donovan and became widely available in 1961 with Pampers' first mass production. Cloth diapers, however, have a much longer history — written records trace them back thousands of years. You're probably talking about modern diapers while your mother-in-law is talking about cloth diapers; you can both be right, it's just a matter of which period you're discussing. Actually, when you have a disagreement like this, it's nice to have someone who knows these details.
