Using Washable Nappies
If you are using cotton pre-folds, you will notice that the fabric has a thicker strip in the middle and is thinner down each side like this... |
 |
You can fold them however you like but here are my suggestions; |
|
| For a baby boy | |
| Fold the thinner strips of fabric behind the middle thicker strip, you should have a long pad of cotton. |  |
| Fold the top third down towards you and the bottom third behind. You should have a concertina shape like this. |  |
| Place on the wrap or cover with one of the folds at the back of baby's bottom and two folds at his front. Remember to have the seams of the cotton away from the baby.If you are using boosters and/or flushable liners put them on top of the cotton. |  |
| For a baby girl | |
| Keeping the thicker strip vertical, fold the top third down onto the cotton and then repeat with the bottom third. |  |
| You will have a log strip of material with the middle bit thicker than the sides. |  |
| Place the cotton in the wrap or cover, making sure that the seams are away from the baby. If you are using boosters and/or flushable liners put them on top of the cotton. |  |
Dizzy Diaper birth to potty nappy |
|
Small babies - use the poppers along the gusset of the nappy to make the nappy shorter in the body. Place any boosters or flushable liners on the nappy. Place the baby on the nappy and bring the front half between the legs of the baby.
|
|
| Bring the left side (the side without the label) across the babies tummy and fasten to poppers on the front of the nappy, they can be fastened all the way round to the right on young babies. |  |
| Then bring the right side over the baby's tummy and fasten to either the front of the nappy or the poppers on the left side of the nappy with young babies. |  |
| For older babies, the poppers of the nappy are fastened along the edge of the front panel. |  |
