Fitted Diapers are a two-layer nappy system usually made from some absorbent
material, maybe hemp or cotton. Designed in an hourglass shape, Fitted Diapers eliminate the need
to fold and pin. This saves time when out in public and a quick nappy change is in
order!
Though the Fitted nappy may seem similar to the contoured nappy, they
actually differ in that - fitted nappies carry elastic in the legs and waist region. This gives
Fitted Diapers an advantage, as it can be worn without an outer cover, displaying those cute prints
on the diaper!
Also, the lack of cover means baby's body feels cool and will get
plenty of air. With its unique hourglass design, Fitted Diapers make movement easy for babies by
preventing the 'waddling effect' caused by bulky and cumbersome diapers.
Leaks and stains rarely appear on a Fitted cloth nappy, as it provides
excellent containment against even solid waste, thus keeping covers clean. However, Fitted Diapers
take longer to wash and dry due to its being a two-layer nappy system. In addition, they are
expensive, and are better suited for outside wear. Along with a set of ordinary nappies, it is
recommended to invest in a few fitted cloth nappies for when taking baby out on his first
picnic!
Fitted Diapers are available in several kinds of fabrics like hemp,
organic cotton, and organic cotton prints. Some of the brands that carry fitted cloth nappies are
Punkin-butt, and Sugar Peas. Other brands include Tots Bots, Motherease, Popolino, Bambino Mio, and
others. In fact, Fitted Diapers are available in every major brand, and in a varied price range to
suit your budget!
So, go shopping with the little one and add a few of his favourite
fitted Cloth Diapers to your nappy collection!
