Can these covers be used while the cord stump is still healing? By folding down the top or something?

I am also not totally sure. We also used disposables for the first week. We had not yet discovered these. These have a pretty low rise though. They have a much lower rise than our one size pocket diapers did. I would guess that they would work fine for an average size newborn.

It doesn't snap down like some newborn covers but it does have a pretty low rise. If you need it a little lower, you can tuck the top down between the baby and prefold/insert, I haven't had any leakage doing this.

I'm not totally sure because we used disposables for the first week or two. However, in general, they fit below the belly button. I've heard it described as "bikini cut" when you use with trifolds.

You can, but i wouldn't recommend doing it very often. Like the rest of this couch, the covers are poorly made and with several washes, i bet they'd be prone to tearing (I'm basing that on me unzipping them to be washed and looking at thow poorly sewn they are). I've washed them, but i'd really just suggest NOT BUYING THIS COUCH.

My son was about 8lbs when we started using these and I didn't need to fold down the front. I did however, fold them down for the fist few weeks (until his umbilical cord healed). Now that he is 17 lbs I use them with the next size up at night (heavy wetter).

I haven't thought about doing that. I don't think that would work because the hole at the neck is smaller than at the bum. I was not very impressed with this product. I used it once and was so disappointed I just donated it to Goodwill.

There is a hole in the bottom for the cord, so if it is laying on its side it would not seal. The cover is BIG it sticks out about 4 inches too!

Maybe. I would fold a flat sheet around and over the pad, so the pad doesn't tear. But I agree, these clips don't open that much.

They are better to just use them for a cover. Get a much better quality one if you want it to stay put. Hope this helps. :)

You can pull the cords to tighten them. You might also try a little lubricant under the cords.

Well its a foot high folded, and the density changes. I tried to use it as a cushion folded, without much luck. But the cover has zippers, so you could take sections out. If my Rottie was still here, I'd use it unfolded with a blanket on top.

Fold them towards the back. They serve as spacers between the mudflap and the fabric

I believe you can.I have several covers over it.I love this product.It works.

No you cannot it's primary function is to prevent the cord being pulled by the weight of the item or items attached to it.

It's a very thick topper that retains it's shape, so don't think it can be folded in. Don't think it should be bunched/crushed up, I would store until needed. Your call.

I made one. They are really easy to make. I was able to reuse the original top portion (as padding), the fasteners and cord, but cut off the sides (which had shrunk) and covered the whole thing with a new, pretty top made of a patterned fabric I got from Spoonflower. There are lots of tutorials online for making replacement covers using the old pad as a pattern. If you will wash your fabric and dry it on a hot setting, you won't have to worry about your replacement shrinking up so badly as the original one did.

Use your strength and just do it... I though I would break mine trying too hard to unfold it, but no. It will get easier to fold/unfold over time.

antenna is flexible but does not fold, cover would need to be modified to allow for antenna or disconnected each time cover was applied.

As long as you aren't too aggressive when removing the cord, you'll be fine. I used these for that exact purpose and only had them fall off when I pulled a little too hard on the cord. If putting them on a wood surface, they will pull up splinters when you remove it.
