Cloth Swim Diaper
Did
you know public pools and water parks require children who are not
yet potty trained to wear a swim diaper? A cloth
swim diaper
is the perfect choice for parents and babies who love the water. Why
spend money on disposable swim diapers, only to throw them away and
buy more? Just like bathing suits, cloth swim diapers are reusable.
Over time you'll save money and with fewer disposables being tossed
in the trash, you'll contribute to saving the environment.
What
is a Swim Diaper?
A
cloth
swim diaper
is similar to a disposable diaper. Swim diapers are not absorbent and
do not weigh children down when they are in the water. Swim diapers
help trap in your baby's pee and poop so they do not leak into the
swimming pool. Many public pools and water parks require babies and
children who are not potty trained to have on a swim diaper. For the
health and safety of other swimmers it is important to keep your
baby's waste where it belongs – the diaper.
Swimmer
Safety
Regular
diapers are made from absorbent fabrics that gather water. Regular
diapers, especially disposables, fill with water and sag. The extra
bulk weighs your baby down and makes it difficult for them to walk,
swim and play. The absorbent plastic beads used in disposable diapers
become gel when submerged in liquids. The weight of the diaper
stresses the seams of the pocket holding in the gel and can tear
during rigorous play. The gel washes into the swimming pool and
becomes a health hazard for other swimmers. It is for this reason
swim diapers were invented.
Cloth
Swimmers
Swim
diapers do not contain absorbent gel beads and are made from durable
fabrics that don't stretch or wear out during hours of play and
exercise. With a cloth
swim diaper,
you and your baby can enjoy splishing and splashing in the water.
Cloth swim diapers are designed to trap in messes and prevent leaks
without sagging or weighing your baby down. Disposable swim diapers
are expensive. The plastics they are made from can cause diaper rash
and skin irritation. A cloth diaper cover provides the same amount of
protection without irritating your baby's skin. Cloth swim diapers
feature a waterproof outer layer combined with a soft inner layer.
Many cloth swim diapers fit around your baby with hook and loop or
snap closures, making them just as convenient as disposable diapers.
Because they are reusable, you'll save money over time. Instead of
buying multiple packs of disposable swim diapers, your baby can wash
and wear a cloth
swim diaper
over again. Depending on how often you and your baby frequent the
water, you'll need two to four cloth swim diapers. Your baby's cloth
swim diaper
should have a snug, but comfortable fit. It can be worn with or
without a bathing suit.
