diapers for swimming?

Are they just called swimmers?

Are there ones that are better than others?

We're going to Jamaica in a few weeks and I wanted to know what to get for DD....she'll be 10 months old tomorrow

TIA!

Re: diapers for swimming?

last year we used the "little swimmers". I have to get a new pack for this season since he needs the next size up.

Yeah, both Pampers and Huggies makes them. I like the Huggies better b/c I felt like they cover the tush betterChat Icon

Just FYI, they only hold poop, not pee, so don't put it on til you get to the beachChat Icon

Re: diapers for swimming?

pampers and huggies both make their own version of "Little Swimmies" either one works the same...just remember they are meant to hold the poop NOT the pee so when we went away we would put one on..only right before they went in the pool or ocean...then I wouldn't let them sit for too long esp in the stroller..we learned that the hard way! =)

Re: diapers for swimming?

What do you mean they don't hold pee? So do I put a diaper on under these?

They hold a little pee, but not like a diaper does.

No, you don't put a diaper underneath them. But if they are in water the pee aspect doesn't matter as much

ETA- The best thing to do is put a regular diaper under the bathing suit til you get to the beach/pool, then when you are ready to do the water, put on the swim diaper
