What is a reusable swim nappy?

Reusable swim nappies are cloth swim nappies, designed to be washed and reused over and over again.
Just like disposable swim nappies, our washable swim nappies are designed to catch the number two’s when going swimming.

How does a reusable swim nappy work?

Cloth swim nappies, like a disposable swim nappies are only designed to catch number 2’s. They are not designed to absorb any wee, however feedback would suggest they are more effective at containing surprise poos while swimming than traditional disposable swimming nappies. The reason for this is that they are adjustable swim nappies and you will be able to fit the nappy snugly around you baby, no matter their size.

Do swim nappies hold urine?

Washable swim nappies and disposable swim nappies are both designed to catch poo’s rather than wee’s. Disposable swim nappies may hold a tiny bit of wee, however this also means the nappy soaks up water and swells up. Meaning the nappy gets full and saggy then starts hanging low between your child legs, especially when not wearing swimmers over the top. It also means they can more easily have a poo blow out once soaked full of water.
Don’t worry if your little one does a wee in the pool. Urine is sterile and besides that pool chemicals keep the water clean too.

Do I need an insert for my cloth swim nappy?

Reusable swim nappies, aka cloth swim nappies do NOT need a separate insert. An insert would soak up water as soon as its in the water, making the reusable swim nappy heavy and interfering with the child’s swimming and floating abilities.

What is the adjustable swim nappy made of?

Our reusable swimming nappies are made from 100% waterproof PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) which is breathable and fast drying. Inside the baby swim nappies there is a 100% Nylon Mesh lining designed to catch any number 2’s. There is no need for extra liners or inserts.

How do I clean my reusable swim nappy?

Cleaning a washable swim nappy is easy! Simply tip any solids in the toilet and rinse under cold water.
Then pop the cloth swim nappy in with your other clothes in the washing machine, and dry on the line.
If your child has not soiled in the reusable swim nappy rinsing with clean water after use, then line drying is sufficient
