Diaper cover is a waterproof layer that
prevents urine from leaking out if your non waterproof diaper,
such as your fitted diapers, or even your traditional nappy or
prefold.
It is optional and a personally choice of
whether you want to put on diaper cover or not.
It may not be necessary too, if your
baby does not wet much.
If you don’t put on the cover, your baby
will be simply ‘coverless’ and this is perfectly fine,
especially in our warm weather.
Diaper cover usually comes with different
sizes
It dry easily under the hot sun or simply
air dry it under the fan. It takes around ½ - 2 hours to dry.
How many diaper cover do I need?
It depends. Probably just 1-2 for
interchange for day use, and 1 for night use. Since diaper
covers are usually easy to dry, you can always wash and reuse
them in the next day.
What can I do if I decide not to use diaper
cover during nap time?
You can prevent urine from leaking
directly onto the baby mattress by placing a piece of old
‘sarong’/cloth on the sleeping mattress. If the baby doesn’t wet
it, then you can always still use it for next time, else just
wash it together with other clothes. This way you will save
money too!
