Bambinex 3 x Roll of 100 Thick Cloth Pads (1)

Product Information

In terms of containment a reusable swim nappy will offer significantly higher protection against loose stools and poo leaks compared to disposables. Reusables have strong elastic and the very best are made of neoprene which is similar to wet suit material. Neoprene makes a secure snug fitting nappy. Splash About Happy Nappy is the neoprene swim nappy that many swimming pools and schools insist upon due to its superior performance.

Bambinex Paper Liners - This kit comes with one roll of 100 Bambinex disposable paper liners which are the best for dealing with newborn poo. Reusable swim nappies are normally based on age and weight. Either with Velcro, Poppers or a pull on style. Most people start with the medium size in the Happy Nappy Swim system. What do I need to take my baby swimming? Morag's Story - why I converted to fleece linersLet me tell you a bit about the event which converted me to fleece liners, having always been pretty sceptical when others raved about them: Muslins when used as newborn nappies give you enough absorbency for 2-2.5 hours. This is the recommended change frequency for a newborn regardless if they are using disposable nappies or reusable. Muslins absorbency perfectly matches this change frequency and ensures baby is kept to the correct change schedule for their age.

Ultra liners are disposable. They do biodegrade slower than toilet paper so we don't recommend you flush them but instead you bin used liners. Wet only liners can be composted or recycled. Liners are Non Chlorine Bleached. Many people used to use the moist cloths that you just throw away after use. This means thousands of moist cloths per baby that land up in the bin or the toilet. Generally full of unhealthy chemicals, odours and irritating substances that soak into the skin. Enough of those! The Bambinex wash cloths are the safe, healthy and easy alternative. Because the cloths are designed from 2 different substances, this makes them super-versatile! The larger size (15x20cm) also makes them easier for dads to use. One side is made from a soft fleece layer that you can use to clean the face, hands or bottom. The other side consists of soft cotton towelling. Thanks to the many small loops, this side is ideal for use when the bottom is very dirty. Fleece does need to be prewashed a couple of times, otherwise liquid runs off it rather than through it. Both disposable swim nappies come in different sizes. Disposable nappies such as the Huggies Little Swimmers range are sized like standard nappies with adjustable tabs. You will buy many different ranges of nappy size as baby grows.

Sadly the company that manufactures Ultra liners has gone into administration. This product is now unavailable. The alternative product which is incredibly similar are the Bambinex liners Reusable swim nappies can be rinsed or machine washed, dried and used many many times making them far more cost effective than disposables. Once outgrown they can be stored ready for use by future children or passed on to others. Swim pants need to keep the poo inside! If poo gets out of the swim nappy then the pool with become contaminated and will need to be closed while it is treated. Whether you use a disposable or a reusable swim nappy always use the layered system above. Private and a local pool usually insist on the layered swim nappies. Swim Nappy Sizes Bambines paper nappy liners are narrower than other nappy liners and fit beautifully even in slim nappies such as all in ones. The liners are made of paper so will eventually breakdown but at a much slower rate than toilet paper. We recommend you do not flush them and instead bin them or you can compost or recycle wet only liners. SizingYou can store the cloths dry and wet them for use or you can store the cloths in a sealed (Tupperware) box. Add some water to make them moist and perhaps use a few drops of essential oil. Inner wrap - Is a lovely soft adjustable wrap made of traditional swimwear material. This is your first layer baby wears to protect against leaks and holds the paper liner secure inside. The wrap IS NOT suitable for baby to wear on its own, most baby swimming schools insiston the use of this layer as well. You do not need to use a disposable nappy, this layer is sufficient.

Outer Layer - is the Happy Nappy Pants. The Happy nappy is made of 1mm supple, stretchy neoprene and finished with super soft, close fitting, deep bands of rib fabric with a high rubber content.The Happy Nappy can be used on its own but for complete confidence and easeof cleaning up 'accidents', use with the inner wrap (described below). The Happy Nappy is the main barrier worn to prevent leaks. It comes in a range of sizes from newborn swimming nappies up to the largest xxl Happy Nappy. Ultra liners are strong, soft and washable (if only wet). They withstand a couple of washes so a roll of 100 liners can last a lot longer than other brands. The Bambinex nappy bag is very handy for its simplicity. The bag can be used to store dirty nappies. Its large size means you can store around 10 to 12 dirty nappies in it. When the nappy bag has been full for a day or two, you'll know it's time to wash the nappies. You open the bag with the zip at the top and deposit the nappies straight into the washing machine. You can just throw the bag in alongside and wash them at 40°. It must not be dried in the tumble dryer, but this would not even be needed as you will be filling it with wet nappies again before too long… Muslins have a surprising degree of absorbency, are also extremely slim line and very shape versatile. That's why we so frequently recommend them as a newborn nappy. The wraps will be a variety of type/unisex colours/prints all suitable for use with muslins and fitting up to 12lbs.The photo is for illustrative purposes only
