Designer Bums Cloth Nappies are recommended for daytime or night-time use with different boosting combinations to suit. Day boosted nappies should be changed every 2-4 hours for comfort and hygiene. Designer Bums cloth nappies are known for a nice, snug trim shape that fit MOST children. The nappies are suitable for use from newborn starting approximately 3.5kg all the way through to toddler toilet training age (approx 15+ kilos depending on individual body shape). At some growth phases particularly with chubby babes, the fit may not be perfect or run a little tight, however as the infant body rapidly changes so does the sizing on the nappy.

FAQs
Congratulations on choosing Designer Bums, a premium, sustainable and stylish choice of reusable modern cloth nappies and parenting essentials. First things first, wash your new nappy to remove any manufacturing residue. New nappies only require a short rinse cycle with a small amount of detergent and can be used once dry. You are now ready to fit your new nappy onto your child!
Your Designer Bums nappy comes with both a snap-in insert and an anchor insert, which is all you need to get started. You can also purchase tri fold inserts for additional boosting or to use in place of the standard inserts. You can choose an insert combination that suits the size of your baby, their output, and boosting needs. The snap in insert snaps into the two corresponding snaps inside the lining at the top of the shell. This one insert might be sufficient for younger infants, as you are changing more often. You’ll know when you need to add extra absorbency as the inserts will be soaked through at change time and the time between changes decreases. For babies that need absorbency in specific parts of the nappy you can fold the long anchor insert into additional formations to bulk up where you need it.
Our nappies are designed to last between 2-4 hours. If you have a particularly heavy wetter it will probably be closer to 2 hours. We don't recommend leaving a nappy on your baby during the day for more than 4 hours at a time as wet nappies against the skin can cause nappy rash and irritation. For hygiene and comfort, any daytime nappy should be changed about every 3 hours.
Fore best results we would recommend using a routine of Dry Pailing, Pre-Rinsing, a Main Wash and Hang to Dry. In depth care instructions can be found on our Care Instructions page and if you have any further questions our customer happiness team, or customer VIP Group are a great resource.
Pre-washing is when you run your shortest wash cycle with the aim to remove the bulk of the soiling from your nappies. Your pre wash should be your shortest machine cycle with half the amount of good quality detergent recommended for your washing machine size and soiling level. We recommend you use a warm or hot wash no higher than 60C/140F for your pre wash. It can be done at the end of the day before dry pailing your nappies or every 1-2 days before your main wash.
In between washes it is recommended to store your soiled nappies in a basket with a high amount of airflow. Choosing a washing basket with a lot of holes will achieve this. Airflow is important to prevent the development of ammonia which will cause smells and degrade your nappies. A closed storage container will create an environment where ammonia thrives and smells develop.
Pre-washing is recommended at the end of the day before dry pailing your nappies or every 1-2 days before your main wash. Do not exceed 2 days for your main wash as leaving soiled nappies for prolonged periods can result in mould and ammonia build up which can shorten the life of your nappy and cause irritation to your little ones skin.
Nappy leaks can be the result of incorrect insert placement and fit, not enough boosting, or a full nappy. Check out our Designer Bums Nappy Fitting Guide to ensure that you are getting an optimal fit. Sometimes making some small tweaks is all you need. Leaks can also be the result of not enough boosting where it’s needed. When taking the nappy off, check whether all of the inserts are saturated, or is a particular section of the inserts wet? Saturated inserts indicate that the nappy is full and cannot absorb any more. We recommend changing more frequently or adding additional boosting to the nappy. If you are already using both inserts you may choose to insert another one into the pocket. If only a small section of the inserts are wet and you have checked your fit against the fitting guide this could indicate that you may need to adjust where your inserts are placed. Ensure you are using both inserts and you can add additional folds to provide further layers in the area which requires boosting. If you are still having some issues with your fit, please contact support with images of your fit and insert layout at info@designerbums.com.au and our support team will be able to help you get a great successful fit on your little one.
