How do I put on the
diapers?
We offer
in-house demonstrations. There
are many ways to fold a diaper;
the diagram below shows the most
common method. For more ways to
fold a cloth diaper, visit
http://www.diaperpin.com/howto.asp#prefold .
Place your baby so his side is
towards you. Slide the diaper
under the baby so it's as high
as the navel. Fold the other end
of the diaper down towards the
baby. (For girls, fold the other
end down before you slide it
under baby.)
Fold the side panel straight
across the middle panel, all the
way to the other seam.
Repeat with the other side
panel. Bring the diaper up
between the legs so it is below
the navel. Bring the sides up
snuggly.
Apply the Snappi fastener clip.
Make sure you keep tension on
the clip or it will come off.
The Snappi clip helps to keep
the diaper snug on the baby for
better "containment", and to
give you the freedom to put the
Velcro cover on less tight for
better breath ability. It also
gives you the freedom to use a
slightly larger cover.
We also have a youtube video
that shows how this is done.
Keep in mind that in this demo,
the baby is in underwear for
modesty sake.
Once you put the cloth diaper
on, you simply place a diaper
cover over, to keep the wetness
in.
