How much water can a diaper hold?

Diapers have varying absorbency levels depending on their design, materials, and intended use. The absorbency of a diaper is usually measured in terms of ounces or grams of liquid it can hold before becoming saturated. Disposable diapers generally range in absorbency from around 7 to 16 ounces (200 to 450 milliliters) of liquid, while cloth diapers' absorbency can vary depending on the materials used and their construction. The exact amount of water a particular diaper can hold may be specified by the manufacturer on the packaging or product description.
