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.

    • Hi there, Our Lexus NX300H, (reg RF18BWO) was stolen off our driveway last night, Monday 27th October. It was there at 9pm, and had gone by 7am. If anyone has any footage on their doorbell or Ring, that would be super helpful. We have asked some neighbours and reported to the police etc.  Most upsettingly, there was a box of old family videos in the car boot, in an old Sainsburys box (photo attached). If anyone sees these dumped at the side of the road, please contact me asap! They are priceless videos that my deceased grandparents took. Thank you for any info, Jojo  
    • Another shout out for Milk & More - their app allows you to alter the order, add or subtract to it and also to schedule holiday stops without having to leave messages in bottle - so more secure. You do have to set up a direct debit with them, but I haven't had any problems with that myself. I have had one or two missed or late deliveries in several years, but not really a problem - only very occasional and caused mainly by delivery-person illness. And very much feels like an old-fashioned milk delivery. They do special seasonal offers as well. More expensive than the cheapest of the super market milk prices, but for that its at your door, fresh and no bother.
    • Enjoying the nostalgia and memories.  As with others, we get ours through Milk and More (is part of big co, so there is that against it, but it's hardly a secret/niche thing) - returnable glass bottles of milk, orange juice, yoghurt, and much more besides (as per the name). And yes it comes in the middle of the night in an electric vehicle. So can still get out nostalgia fix, doubled when the Riverford chap comes too. 
    • This sounds like what goes on at Tessa Jowell GP surgery as well as others.   If you can flag yourself up as a ‘vulnerable’ patient or one that can’t use Apps for whatever reason etc then you can usually make appts by phone. They would have to make allowances. Quote the Equality Act 2010,  reasonable adjustments section.
