Swim Diapers for a 9 Month Old

I like Finis for reusable and I still put a regular swimsuit over the swim diaper. If you're looking for a disposable (you may want to check with the pool you're going to because some of them are specific) Huggies Little Swimmers fit much better than the Pampers, the smallest size they make is 16-26 lbs so they're going to be slightly large but once you put a swim bottom over them they do their job.

I run Babies Bottoms and More, a cloth diaper store in Farmers Branch, out of my home. We have reusable swim diapers made by Imse Vimse that will fit starting at 9 lbs. We're open today (Saturday) fromu 1-4, and during the week by appointment. You can find our address and phone number on our website, www.babiesbottomsandmore.com.

I've used both the Huggies and Little Swimmers swim diapers with my daughter. Starting as young as 3 months old. I just put the smallest swim diaper I could find on her (started at 16 lbs like the ones you have) and put her bathing suit on over it. It worked fine. The bathing suit bottom is enough to hold in the swim diaper even when its too big. If you put her in a bikini just roll the top of the diaper down just a bit. I haven't tried the reuseable swim diapers. That could be a good option too.

I would go with a reusable swim diaper. They are about the same price you would pay for a whole package of disposible and they are great.

My kids' swim teacher doesn't allow the disposable swim diapers - she says they don't do the job. She has reusable swim diapers that hold the poop in. You can find them online. Even the disposable ones don't hold urine in. My son always had the reusable one under his regular swim suit, because you are right the swimsuit liners don't help.

Before we go to the pool I put the baby into the exesaucer. It always makes him poop before we go.

I like the Huggies brand. We're Pampers lovers, but I'm not a fan of their swim diapers. Both my boys peed on me and the chair while wearing them! We used the Little Swimmers when they were 9 months old and loved them.

Check at www.swimoutlet.com. for the cloth swim diapers. They are by weight and have elastic that fits snugly around the waist and legs. They have several different brands but they work much better than even the lined swimsuits. They come in different colors or prints. I still use mine under her baby Gap swimsuit.

My daughter is the exact same age and size...tiny, right?! I put her in a little swimmer (Huggies), and it fit fine. I've not used the Pampers Splashers before. We are swimming today, and I'll use the same brand again. They seem great!

Actually you can find reusable swim diapers just google it online. I have two and rotate them since we go to the pool a lot. They can be thrown in the washing machine and dryer as well. Much more environmentally friendly. Also swim diapers are only meant to keep poop from escaping into the pool they are not meant to hold urine as well.

We use a cloth diaper (bum genius 3.0). I keep a really thin microfiber insert in it to catch pee before we get into the pool. The water proof outer keeps the poo in the diaper but it is not heavy and I think a lot easier to use than the disposable swim diapers. I used a pampers swim diaper two or three times when he was 9 months old (for swim lessons at the Y) and I did not care for them. I know there are cloth diaper made for swimming but I have never found a need for them with my BG 3.0.

We always used Little Swimmers I think it was called. They should be right in the area of the regular diapers. They came in blue or pink with a design on them. My daughter was 3 months at the beginning of the summer when started. It seems like the smallest ones started around 10lbs. but i could be wrong.

Hi!
I recommend Little Swimmers from Huggies. They tend to fit better. Right now they are on special on Walgreens. The final price is $3.50 for a package of 12 (for the small size). Check this website, it will tell you how to get this deal ! But hurry the sales ends today !!!!!!

Many swim schools sell nice reusable ones. One Step Ahead also has some. Maybe they have smaller sizes.
