Disposable Swim Nappies

Not keen? You can always buy single-use disposable swim nappies if cleaning out and washing reusable swim nappies just isn’t for you. They’re kind of like pull-ups and designed to be thrown out after they’ve been worn, but some mums swear by washing, drying and reusing them a couple of times if they’ve not copped a number 2 on the beach!
