I've never seen these before. What is this?

It look like ice, is cold but has the texture of rubber. Some was coming out of his diaper (pee area)

Should I call 111?

It's the inside of the nappy

It's just the inside of the nappy, the absorbent bits.
I found this out when chucking a dirty nappy down the stairs for the bin and it exploded everywhere Envy

Likely the crystals from inside the nappy? Tear into a ‘full’ one the stuff that absorbs the pee looks like this so nothing to worry about I would say?

When the baby pees , the pee is crystalized into gel. The nappy has obviously split. Give the child a wash. No need for 111

Agree with the above. Exploding nappy.

Don't feel bad, I properly freaked out the first time this happened to me!

If you ever accidentally put one in the washing machine this stuff will be all over you forever 🤠
