Ditto Splashabout happy nappy - if you take your daughter to a hydrotherapy pool (e.g. Peckham Pulse) then you don't need a wetsuit (expensive and can restrict movement) as it's warm; I don't even bother with a swimming costume for my girl.


Once you and your daughter are happy in the water then a wetsuit maybe useful so you can use the cooler main pool, too.


Have fun!

I think it would depend on your baby's rate of growth!! I only say that because I bought a happy nappy but only got to use it twice as she grew out of it so it was a bit of a waste of money for me but she is a big girl so grew out of the medium size easily! I now put her in a Huggies disposable swim nappy and sometimes a swimming costume, the nappy is fine on its own.


I was selling my splash about happy nappy a little while ago but it went unsold, I would happily lend it to you to try it out to see if it works for you! it is size medium and has a liner as well. Let me know.

Jennyh makes a good point. If you are taking your daughter for swimming lessons then check with the course organiser about the requirements. Otherwise, check with the pool you are going to. We started with lessons, hence we have used happy nappies (with Huggies little swimmers underneath) from the outset. They are meant to be a very snug fit to prevent leaks into the pool and my daughter has used the same one from 3 months to 6 months.


I would still recommend taking your baby to a hydrotherapy pool esp as she is only 3 months and, I assume, it's her first swimming experience. If you do that then you won't need a wetsuit.

I've got my daughters first happy nappy which I am banned from using for my son on account of it being more feminine colours! Hmmm


I put it on here a few weeks ago and still have it, was asking ?3 if your interested.


I always used a disposable nappy underneath, although we never had any incidences with this nappy, we did with a later larger one and I am happy to confirm the system works and the happy nappy remained unsoiled!


I'm after an extra large happy nappy if anyone wants to get rid of one......

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
