As daylight increases and temperatures climb, swimming with baby can be a perfect activity to beat the summer heat. Whether you’re introducing baby to swimming for the first time or you’ve signed up for an infant swim class, one item you’ll need to purchase are swim diapers.
Unlike conventional diapers, swim diapers contain only solid waste and don’t retain water (or puff up). Therefore it’s important to get a correct fit so nothing leaks out while you’re splashing in the sun. Swim diapers are required for public pools and are common courtesy if you’re visiting a friend’s private pool.
While disposable swim diapers can be great for travel, if you’re around town, you’ll want to purchase a reusable swim diaper or two.
Reusable swim diapers are easy to launder, come in fun designs, and can save you money (instead of constantly buying disposables). Many look great paired with a swim shirt, meaning you can skip buying multiple-piece swim sets.
