Would these work as swim diapers if I use a disposable diaper inside?

Yes! That's what we use ours for. And side note --I just discovered disposable swim diapers are washable (pee only)!! You just throw them in the washer and let them air dry-they are good for 3 washes. :)

I've read several opinions on this... I haven't tried them yet because my son is still too little to fit these diapers... some people say they put liners in the pocket & put liners on the inside of the cover to get several uses... hope that helps a little...

Yes... however the drawback is that they will feel and stay wet against their skin, so I try and change them right away. The "stay-dry" ones work well for longer periods. Sometimes I use one of those with one of these underneath for extra absorbency. Hope that helps.

When you say regular diaper do you mean cloth diaper or disposable diaper? I suppose a disposable might work but honestly we have not tried it, so I could not say honestly.

If they soak in the toilet they will break apart when flushed. They are meant to be used once and then thrown away. If you were to try to use these more than once I wouldn't do so right after a diaper change and then use the same one, I don't see how they're washable though. I've accidentally washed them before and they come out broken apart usually.

yes, but they are made well and hold more pee or poop then regular underwear. If you child does have an accident they rinse out nicely too. I love them and so does my son. My only complaint would be they are a little warm on HOT days. Hope this helps you ;)

Probably. The disposable covers are paper and the liquid on the shoes will probably leak through and if the shoes are very wet the covers will likely tear as well. On the other hand if the shoes are almost dry the footprints will not show. Also, you could try doubling the safety shoes for more protection.

I would refer to the Thirsties website for specific info, but you could always try laying the insert inside of the cover and see how it works. I use my cover with fitted diapers and prefolds with a snappi. The covers do a really good job of holding moisture inside.

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.

there is no need for an additional disposable diaper if you use 2 of these reusable ones. but you might take the next lager size if you are planning to. my son was about the same size and height then yours and the medium still fits him.

I haven't used them yet as my son is a bit too small still. I did fold a prefold and stuff it in the pocket part of the diaper to see it it would fit (it did), and by my research they should work if you want to use them instead of the microfiber liners.

It depends on where you want to put them. The inside slip pockets are good for regular diapers but they are not elastic top so they wont stretch to accomodate cloth. If you just plan on laying them in the main compartment or even the front zip pocket thats attached to the handle it would probaby be fine. They carry this in store at the big chain baby stores so you may want to check it out in person first.

They are ok while standing but sitting they tend to leak after a few wettings. Not bad though for extra protection over disposable diapers. I wouldn't poop in them.

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.

My daughter has used hers for disposable diapers. I guess you could fold the cloth diapers so they would fit.

In my experience I have only used them in cloth. They are very absorbent and work better under a prefold or added to a pocket diaper. I really can't speak to how it would work in a disposable, but I supposed you could just be careful not to dispose of it with the diaper when you're done.

These aren't absorbent like the Huggies or similar brand swim diapers, so pee will soak thru. But, they are better about catching poop. The swim school my child attends requires that kids wear two of this type swim diaper when he goes to his lessons. We haven't had any problems with this method.
