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.

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!

No with 2 diapers you can put in washing machine every other day, these are well made

This is totally up to you. I use cloth, but they must be washed with a rinse, then a wash, then a rinse cycle and I usually do a load every 2nd day. Then I try to spend every 4th day doing a few loads of other laundry before the diapers. Are there enough machines that you won't be stuck without a washer when you need to do laundry?

yes, wash clothes and probably hand towels, depending on how you fold them, would fit. NOT bath towels

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.

I use then on top of a crib liner when my baby cosleeps with me. That way the baby's body isn't on the scratchy surface of the pad. I have never used them as actual diapers.

No, these are absorbent enough on their own. You should not need to add an additional pad. If you add a pad that is waterproof on the bottom (as most stick on pads are) you will prevent the fluid from reaching the diaper. So if you must add an extra pad, make sure it is the type that is not plastic-lined on the bottom.

Yes, but they are on the small side for me. I love and highly recommend GroVia's liners if that is your need. These are better for adding a staydry layer between the diaper fabric and your baby's bum.

It does -we had a totally incontinent male who we probably kept around for way too long, but we just couldn't make such a hard decision. I had a couple of them that I would use for daytime when we weren't home, washed them in the washing machine at night. Used baby diapers with a hole cut for the tail (and pinned closed just to be sure) when we were at home and could change when needed.

Not unless the shirt is very large and untucked. The pouch on the side hangs down close to the beltline and would be very uncomfortable under a tucked in shirt. Think jacket rather than shirt.

There is an accessory called "Potette at Home" that is a reusable silicone insert that you can wash like a regular plastic potty, except it's squishy and you could pack that too if you're going to be in hotels or at a house.

Yes! The pad can remain under you while plugged in and in use. There is a cloth/flannel outside liner that slips over the pad and can be removed for laundering. I was unaware that the owners manual said not to lay on it but that is the only way I use it.

I would guess no. A baby diaper that is soaked would still be a lot smaller than an adult item.

I can't imagine any diaper system would be very good for travelling or camping, unless you have a washer and dryer available. If so, then yes this would be great. The covers don't have to be washed every time and the prefolds can be used for everything - not just diapers. They take up a lot of space though... if that's a concern, you should try finding some all-in-ones or specialized inserts as they tend to be thinner.

I just ordered some and am new to cloth diapering... But yes, you must wash the cover and insert when used as a pocket diaper. I plan on ordering Prefolds and bamboo inserts and just putting those on the diaper instead of the insert and using the covers as covers. Hopefully to be able to reuse the cover a few times.

The diapers come we with inserts that you just remove and wash...u can Google tutorials of detergent to use as well as care instructions
