You can get disposable swim nappies, but I'd go for the neoprene ones like the 'Splashabout Happy Nappy' (you will find them if you Google).


They have a ribbed cuff that contains any accidents (unlike other swim nappies) and many pools are starting to insist on them. If baby does poo in it, which is fairly rare in my experience you just take it off, tip / flush nappy off in the loo & then wash it. Really not a hassle.


If you think about it the very nature of disposables makes the swim ones pretty useless as if they had all the absorbent gels etc in them they would swell up & explode within about 2 minutes LOL. So, the ones they make dont really contain anything & it's flipping annoying when a pool gets closed for the day because a child has leaked into it.


I'd also highly recommend a baby wetsuit - it looks like a one piece swimsuit and velcros on - opens up, put on like a coat then velcros across body, over shoulders & between the legs. In a cooler pool it keeps the baby warm & happy & extends the time you can stay in with them considerably. If you only plan to go to Pecham Pulse baby pool you don't need it, but in other pools (even in Spain) I found ours invaluable, and the same one fitted over 2 summers so it was good value.


Hope this helps.

    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's.
