Can extend diaper changing time like 8hr

Question

Asked for Female, 1 Years

Hello Doctor, Doctors says that need to change diaper like every 3 to 5 hrs and even before as per diaper wet diaper. So my question is in new born babies mostly diaper won't get wet easily (may be urinated like 1 time) and sometimes it's like a new diaper. In this case also need to change the diaper like 3 to 5 hours? And for 1 year babies also sometimes diaper won't get wet easily (like new diaper) then can use that diaper like 8-10 hours? Please suggest. Thank you.
