Moms- I have a dumb question.
We've never brought Ben in a pool before and will be doing so at our hotel on Sunday (yes, we are FINALLY coming home!). ?I bought him a pair of swim trunks at the baby Gap outlet today ($2.97- woot woot!!!). ?Can I used a regular diaper underneath it or do I need to buy those special swim diapers? Thanks!
Re: Moms- I have a dumb question.
The regular ones bloat up pretty big. Back in the day when I worked with toddlers at daycare we would use regular ones if the swimmers ran out. It was amusing.
I hope he enjoys it!
Oftentimes, hotel pools will have rules that babies MUST wear a swim diaper. You should probably check with the place where you will be staying to see if they have that rule.
I know it is a rule for our pool too......regular diapers not only absorb a TON of water but they do not keep poopies from getting into the water
Great to know! ?I found a $1.50 coupon for them adn the Walmart out here has them on sale, so I will pick some up tomorrow.
Laura, do you know if they run true to size? ?I followed your advice on the Overnite diapers and bought a size bigger (he wears a 3 in Cruisers and a 4 in Huggies Overnites). ?TIA!?
i have the swim ones for the boys. vinnys diaper size is a 6 and i have him in the lg. tonys diaper size is a 5 and i have him in a med.
i went by the weight limits on their diapers to fit the swim diapers and that worked for me,
good luck!!!!!
owen wears the smalls and he has room to spare, he is currently in 3's which are big, shoulda got him 2-3's.
have fun swimming! owen loves his kiddie pool! - but only when mommy goes in with him! ha hasn't been in a real pool since 3 mos (at a hotel - shhh, i didnt put a diaper on him, he was way too small for the swimmers then, plus back then he only pooped like once a week! - and he was fine)
