My friend apparently needs plastic diapers, and I was wondering would these be helpful in addition to the plastic diapers? Too late for me to cancel.

Yes they are great because you can remove them with plastic diapers on so they stay dry and/or change the pad. You have the benefit of the diapers for any big "accidents" and the changing or removal of pads keep the skin dry. They also wick away moisture to prevent skin breakdown and if arranged well to prevent leaks help keep bed dry overnight if large amount of urine flows out.

If your friend needs extra protection the guards work great. Just put them inside the depends pull ups (no one calls them plastic diapers anymore). Depends makes all types and styles now.

I have had cancer and as a result sometime I leak when lifting or bending. I do not leak very much, but do not want wet pants. If you friend does not actually wet himself I think these would work. I would not like to wear diapers if I didn't have too. Good Luck

These are only for line the boxer briefs for males, for leaky bladders. They would be not needed, if an adult diaper is worn.

It helps me and not a bad idea to try. It's much cheaper and more convenient. Best to use a tight brief.

Is it possible to use new or old towels to make your own? Or perhaps cloth diapers or maybe the microfiber cloths? I am sort of asking for myself as well because I have been so impressed with the "Comments" that I am planning on buying one.

Are you just trying to make the disposable diapers "cute"??? Because that seems like a wast of money to me. You can get outfits that come with covers. I'm not sure why you would want to use it over a disposable. It works great with prefolds and cloth inserts though! I have two and they've been GREAT!

Yes they do - I'm currently using med/large gpants. Might have to double them over in the small ones. They scrunch up a little bit inside the plastic gpant, but not to the point where they touch the outside (fabric) part of the gdiaper. I just kind of hold it in place with my hand while I pull the diaper up and over kiddo's bottom.

Happy flute. I'd suggest I've you are going to get any buy two diaper. Don't buy the whole pack of ten.

I think they would work great! I am new to cloth diapering and really like these inserts so far. I lay them in all kinds of diapers to add absorption with little bulk, including covers and All In Ones. I usually put them behind another faster absorbing insert to use with my two year old. I have not tried them by themselves with a cover. They would work great combined with a prefold too. I would put them closest to the diaper cover since they absorb more slowly than prefolds.

I am also not totally sure. We also used disposables for the first week. We had not yet discovered these. These have a pretty low rise though. They have a much lower rise than our one size pocket diapers did. I would guess that they would work fine for an average size newborn.

I assume the reason for this is to provide extra protection. You can create a fold where it's needed for boy or girl BUT I agree. I think it's a pain. These were my least favorite diaper but with and extra stuffing did well for night time. I like grovia but hate they are made in China so alas I resorted to sewing my own. If you can handle it there are some cool wool covers out there you can lay a prefold in them. Those were the best of all.

there is no need for an additional disposable diaper if you use 2 of these reusable ones. but you might take the next lager size if you are planning to. my son was about the same size and height then yours and the medium still fits him.

I love them! I have flip diapers also, and I love that I can throw away most I the poop, and toss the diaper cover and pad directly into the laundry! I'm not afraid of poop either haha but it gets everywhere and it can be a real pain to clean! My suggestion would be to try a box, see if you find it's worth it! Good luck!

Just use real newborn diapers or make a cloth diaper, way cheaper. I have a leftover pack of NB diapers that I saved for my daughter to use on her dolls. I turn the monkey off without taking the diaper off, I just push it down a bit.

We put these inside our son's Naty diapers at night due to him having pee-pee blowouts. We're not sure if they'd last the whole night (our son wakes up to eat once), but they certainly have nearly eliminated blowouts. I will be honest in saying that we switched over to disposable overnight diapers as he has started to sleep through the night and we didn't want to risk it. But overall these were a huge help and we recommend them.

They are pocket diapers. They come with inserts. You "stuff" the inserts into the pocket. You change the baby like you would a disposable. Not after one time of peeing put a few hours

The Freetime have the inserts attached; they are not pocket diapers. You can buy extra, but it will make the diapers really bulky!

When you say regular diaper do you mean cloth diaper or disposable diaper? I suppose a disposable might work but honestly we have not tried it, so I could not say honestly.

mmm, no, the insert are for those cloth diapers that have pockets. Watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r15KaJmssKM this is where I learned a lot. No affiliation with the girl in the video, I don't know her, but I like the video. If you watch at minute 01:55, then after minute 09:40, you will know what I mean. The one we both have is designed to be re-used several times, while the ones with pockets you use inserts then put the whole thing in the wash. What you need with these are prefolds. Either buy them (some are really bulky, I regret buying them) or make your own. ANy cotton material should work. mmm, no, the insert are for those cloth diapers that have pockets.

Yes, I used disposables for the first couple of weeks, because I couldn't figure out how to size the diaper correctly. Then I found a video on YouTube that showed how to do it, and they worked well for my daughter after that. She was about 9 lbs at that point.
