Klingon diapers?

Although we do have {qhu} "baby", not surprisingly there's no known word
for "diaper". For all we know, Klingons don't use them. (Not all Terran
cultures do either.)
>(Any word for 'diaper'? >pom yoD< comes to mind [...]
"dysentery shield" <grin>
How about using *{qatwI'} "wrapper" from {qat} "wrap, encase"? Other words
to play with might be the diminutives of {yopwaH} "pants" and {Sut} "clothing".
