No, it's not. I've heard "nappy headed" for years. I have never heard
any native-born American refer to diapers as "nappies".

I have never heard an American call them nappies either, but I sure have
heard *nappy* used other ways.

You've never heard nappy as baby talk for taking a snooze (nappy
time), you've probably never had children. My cats have nappy
blankies.

I actually have grown children who love me and enjoy being around me, you
obviously do not since we never hear about anything other than animals
dropping in on you. I think you've been smoking too many roll your owns.

We talk about having a 'nap' which is a short sleep, but nothing to do with
'nappies'.

"nap" as in sleep comes from Germanic
"napkin" comes from Latin, via French

My god. I cannot imagine it. I have to admit that I made it through
parenthood changing only one dirty time. The boy was lucky that the day
he had diarrhea in the car seat was a nice hot one, because I took him
in the car seat to the barn and hosed off him and the car seat, then
undressed him and hosed him down some more. It was fun and games for him
to get sprayed with the hose on a hot summer day. I had a friend whose
mother was an older sister of the Dionne quintuplets. Lucky for them
that the community and the government stepped in to provide help with
the rearing of those kids. They had a few more kids after the quints.
