Notes &
you’d think with all the things that have come out of my mouth since we’ve had the baby that i’ve gone hippie (“i LOVE my Moby wrap!”, “cloth diapers were definitely the way to go for us”, “i hate all the plastic crap!”, etc.) but keep in mind that i haven’t, i still selfishliy prefer convenience and functional design over anything else.
and with that… i love reusable swim diapers! okay, disposable swim diapers make sense to me if your baby isn’t really going to go in a pool/ocean that often, maybe a couple of times every few months. but if you’re going in pools any more often than that it just doesn’t make sense financially to buy the disposable things. for the cost of one pack of disposables you can buy one reusable and it’ll last for MONTHS before they grow out of it for $7+!
i’ve had great luck with the Swimways, Charlie Banana, and Finis (though this one is long in the crotch) so far. however i’m really interested in trying the Kushies and Imse Vimse where they don’t pull down like undies so when they do have a major poop you’re not dragging it down their legs. oh, and we’ve had MAJOR poops in them and you would never know it until we go to take it off, they really do hold in the poo! i don’t know how but they work.
