Can a regular diaper be worn underneath one of these (tucked in of course)? We're planning a beach vacation and may not have a washing machine handy.

I don't think it would work very well. They fit pretty snug. Also I'm not sure going a size bigger would work as there may be gaps around the legs, if your concern is to hide the diaper.

Probably not, I think they might be too small. I don't use them for diapers though. I use them for a burp cloth. <3

I just tried this so I can answer your question, and I was able to do so, but the folded side will not lay as flat, of course....but it can be done. I love these pads and they wash and dry great...warm water and low heat to dry.

You can fold them to fit, you will need to double or stuff with another flat diaper or a prefold to get more absorbency.

Yes you can. I have one in mine right now...along with one in both of our diaper changing baskets. I just ordered more because when babies are little, they have a tendency to go while you are changing them and are were getting ours soiled faster than we could wash them. These have saved my couch and bed several times and our little one is only 2 weeks old.

Yes and I only know because I've forgot to take it off when I let my dog outside. Some poop gets on the diaper and some was inside it. Not fun. FYI--These diapers must be used with a pad of some kind inside as they are not waterproof.

Yes. You put the diaper insert into the diaper and remove them before each wash. I personally love pocket diapers, but if you're looking for on that just sits inside the cover, I'd look into Bumgenius Flips.

I have to agree with the other ladies. They are thicker than disposable diapers, and can make some clothes a little snug. I however don't think that it is a problem. The fact that they are really good diapers more than makes up for that.

Possibly. I personally don't cloth diaper. However my daughter is in 2T/3T pull-ups that I still keep in this container. I don't know about all the inserts, etc that go along with cloth diapers, but its worth a shot. The diapers we use, do slide out relatively easily through the opening, but size/thickness/etc are different with cloth. We love this container. It really worked well over the last 2 1/2 years.

You would have Velcro under your mattress....leaving room for your bottom sheet. It might be awkward changing sheets but doable.

Yes, you have to wash after every diaper change. How many you need depends on your baby. If you do not want to wash after every change, you would need to buy covers and then prefolds to put in them. Change the prefolds every time and reuse the shell.

Yes, quite well! With cotton pre-folds, I sometimes find that my son's skin is wet when I change his diaper. These leave his skin feeling as dry as it would be in a disposable!

I think itself it is swim diaper already. I didn't put a regular diaper inside because this pant is too tight if I put extra thing inside. so far my daughter didn't make accident when she wear it. So I cannot tell whether it can really hold poopoo.

That depends. If you do it like recommended, then yes. Instead of putting the inserts in the pocket as it calls for, we just lay them inside so that they act as a liner instead. This way, for wet diapers all that needs to be changed and washed is the insert/liner and the cover can last half a day at the least. With poop, it depends on the volume to be honest. A large poop will get enough mess in there to need to change the whole thing, but smaller ones generally don't for us. We generally go through 12-15 inserts and 2-4 covers a day.

Hi, I do wash the diapers after each use, but if youre baby only pee and the cover isn´t wet you can use it again. I love Alva diapers!! and I use them with charcoal bamboo inserts and they are just perfect!!!

Hi Kaleena. You can and i recommend you to use liner with these cloth diapers. I don't understand the second part of your question but if you are asking how to best maintain the diaper, i would recommend you to wash them with dishwasher detergent because conventional soap can block it's absorbing power.

They could be placed inside a prefold if extra absorbency is needed. You can place these in pocket diapers, layer on an All-in-one diaper, or even lay these inside a diaper cover (like a bum genius brand Flip diaper.) these are versatile and can be placed directly against babies skin if desired.
