How do I use a velcro or snug fitting snap cover without pins when I am using a prefold diaper?
 1. Lay diaper out flat. |
 2. Fold in thirds. |
 3. Place liner on top of diaper. (A liner is optional) |
 4. Place diaper in open cover. |
 5. Slide cover and diaper under your baby. Fold the diaper down in front* if it is too long. |
 6. Bring up the front of the cover and fasten. |
*Some cover/diaper combinations work better with the diaper folded down in the back.
For a newborn, try folding the diaper in fourths along the short length.
Some diaper covers have a flap that is sewn on the top front (like the Bumkins above, there are others as well). Bumkins calls this a Leak Shield and recommends that you tuck your diaper into the pocket. I do not recommend that you do this. When a wet diaper comes in contact with the stitching where the velcro is sewn it will wick out onto the velcro. I think that it works better to keep the diaper out of the pocket and use the Leak Shield to keep the diaper off of the velcro stiching.
