How to avoid leaks in your reusable cloth diapers

I'll teach you how to leak in your cloth diapers.

Maybe reverse psychology works or if it doesn't work, at least you have fun while reading this text 😄

I love to talk and dispel myths that surround this parallel world. Parallel world?!? That's how people "out of this world" make you feel. For them, who have already warned you that it doesn't work, you are part of a group of “weird” people who insist on being against it. 

Don't worry, it happened to me and it's hard to avoid the stares waiting for you to fail. They're all dying to tell you: "I warned you! It does not work!”. The trick? Ignore it, it will pass to them when they see you successfully using diapers. 

Oh well.. This text is to teach you otherwise. I already forgot. The habit I have of always simplifying things is stronger than I am.

Returning to the theme, we're going to make all your family and friends right and we're going to cause breakouts!

How to cause leaks in your reusable diapers simply and quickly

  • Fits the bodysuit in the crotch; You have to fit it well so that it stays inside the diaper and works as an extra absorbent. That's how you get crotch leaks. 
  • Wear very tight pants in the butt area; This way you can tighten the diaper as a whole and at the same time disguise the volume. This fugue is of the suspense type. The diaper is all compressed and the pee will come out wherever it suits you best.
  • Do not adjust the height of your one-size-fits-all diapers; This way you leave room for escape through the groin and the whole leg.
  • Leaves the diaper too wide or too tight on the belly and legs. The option is really personal taste. What was your choice? It doesn't matter, you'll always get away, but in an indeterminate place. If you squeeze too much, the diaper gets all compressed and you can also leave your baby marked. If you chose to leave the diaper wide, the pee has free passage. 

I hope that with these tips you can get the escape that suits you the most when you need it the most 🙂

You know why I gave you all these tips right? Exactly! To not do it. 

Two of the main causes of reusable diaper leakage are poor fit and diaper compression leaks. 

Fix the fit and avoid diaper compression so you don't have leaks:

 You get the perfect fit by closing the diaper. You have to be able to run one finger over the belly area and the other over the legs area. In short, the diaper cannot be loose or tight.

 Compression leaks are also easy to fix. Avoid tight clothes in the diaper area and don't put too many absorbents inside the diapers. The fabric needs room to expand, if it can't absorb the liquid it will come out of the diaper or cover.
