Splash About Original Happy Nappy Swim Nappy

Product Information

When it comes to choosing the under swim nappy (widely known as Happy Nappy) you have two basic choices. Either a disposable swim nappy or a reusable swim nappy. Below we bullet out the main considerations. Whatever you do, don’t put your baby in a normal everyday nappy! It will get full of water, make your baby weigh a ton and in all likelihood split open releasing all the contents with it!

For little dreamers everywhere, stories of rainbows, balloons and painting pictures with the clouds. These gentle and pretty colour combinations are perfect to brighten up any gloomy day. It goes without saying, disposable swim nappies are highly convenient and have their place, but with the focus on environmental issues, we highly recommend using a reusable swim nappy.

If you do need to wash the nappy (if it has been soiled) then wash at 30 Celsius with a weakened detergent Reusable swim nappies cause about 1.5-2.5 less CO2 production during manufacturing, use and waste processing compared to disposable swim nappies. This includes the washing of the reusable swim nappies There are a number of leading manufacturers of swim nappies in the UK.

A typical disposable swim nappy weighs about 30g vs a reusable one at about 80g. When you compare this over the lifetime of usage, assuming an average of 50 “swims”, the amount of waste produced by paper disposable swim nappy will be about 20 times more! We all know that babies poo whenever they want to, not when convenient to you! Even toddlers that have been successfully potty trained for months or even years can ignore the warning signs when they’re enjoying themselves! Baby swimming nappies come in all shapes and sizes so we’ve debunked some myths, laid out some facts, and explained everything you need to know about the baby swim nappy below.Swim nappies are not designed to hold in urine. They are designed to hold solids only, hence if your child is suffering from diarrhoea (or has been suffering from diarrhoea in the last 48 hours) you must not let your child enter the swimming pool. Other Swim Nappy Considerations The main purpose of the neoprene nappy that goes over the top of the swim nappy is to form a tight seal around your child’s midriff and thighs to ensure any leaks are contained! So when you are choosing sizes, make sure you buy the right size and not a larger one so they grow into it! With reusable swim nappies, soft nappy liners are available and specially designed to complete the double nappy system. After swimming, in the event of any little accidents, the nappy liner makes changing and cleaning much simpler. Simply remove the neoprene over nappy, undo the nappy wrap and flush away the soiled liner or if unsoiled just place in the bin. The fully biodegradable liner saves you money and saves the environment at the same time Whilst on the face of it reusable swim nappies look more expensive, they typically work out about 4 times cheaper over the lifetime of usage
