The ones I used last year are not on the list. I don’t even remember what brand they were but they were on clearance. I got the Bummis for this summer and I am hoping they will be a lot easier because of the snaps. Last summer the diapers we had were slip on.

@CFMama there are definitely more out there. These are the brands that come to my mind first. I actually used the iPlay from Babies R Us, a combo swim diaper/ swimming trunk. They were a pain to put on and take off though.

I have a couple of the Bummis Swimmis for my kids, and I like them a lot. The only other one I’ve used did not have velcro/snaps (It was pull-up/down) and I definitely recommend something with closures. If the baby does poop while in the pool, the mess is WAY easier to clean up if you can lay the baby down and open the diaper.

I have two Imse Vimse swim diapers and love them. They are easy to pull on but have snaps on one side to make taking a dirtied one off a bit easier. I really like the fit on my son, who’s on the skinny side. They’re super trim! I like that because I put trunks on over top.

I have used the Imse Vimse swim diapers last summer and for winter swim lessons, worked great, very easy to use, very thin for under the swim suit, and good fittign keeps poo in. Also matching tankini cute! Plus they ahve side snaps to easily change them out of them, or pull on real easy.

Just bought an applecheeks but waiting for it still it was preorder and stuck in customs from canada so now it’s finallly on its way lol. let yo uknow how it is later!

I loved the Imse Vimse diapers, but this summer we are trying the Bummi’s Swimmi! We’ll have to post and let ya’all know how they work too!

One trick for the pocket diapers is to use diapers that are too small , because they might give the right fit for swimming without the insert.

Loved the Bummies when he was small because of the velcro and the Imse Vimse now that he is mobile since it is so quick to get on.

We use Bummis, and had great success with poo containment. I also think they are easy to use and clean. I don’t know if we just have skinny waisted boys, but our kids can wear a size smaller than what their weight would say.

The only thing I don’t like is that the colors eventually fade, but I will say I used it many places that are hard on colors, like the ocean and the lake.

We love BUmmis Originals! The mesh lining is great for containing messes and since we only use it for the pool I dont worry about PUL. I’ve also used worn out pockets.

We use Monkey Doodlez now but have used Bummis before too. Bummis scratched my tummy the whole time he was in my watersling but Monkey Doodlez worked great. And he even had a icky pooh and nothing got in the water. Now we are on our 5th baby now he will be 1 in July and our Monkey doodlez swimmers are still going strong- we just get a new pattern every year to stay up to date with the cool new ones…. I can’t wait until my dino ones comes !!

I have used the iplay, monkey doodlez, and wee wave swim diapers. The iplay is definitely my favorite, although all of them work fine. I have friends who prefer the bummis swimmi because it is adjustable, and it is apparently hard to get the pull-on ones to fit babies with small thighs. My daughter has chunky thighs, so I’ve just heard this from friends.

We use kushies and love them. I have not yet had to deal with a #2, but as far as on and off, fit and looks, they are great. My boy has a bigger tummy and small legs so it is nice that they adjust.

we live in southern california and are in the pool from april through october. last year our son started going in the pool with us at 4 months old (he is the same age as kim’s son, fletcher) and we used an iplay swim diaper purchased locally all summer. one benefit of the iplay is that it is absorbant, but it is harder to take off when wet and it does take a while to hang dry. this year we purchased iplay swim trunks, but they are a little too big so he will have to grow into them. we also purchased an imse vimse swim diaper for swim lessons at an indoor public pool. the imse vimse is not absorbant, but the fit is great and it would contain the “poo” and prevent an accident. it is easier to get off when wet beacuse of the side snaps.

Hi I like your deals could you send me an email pleas. I have a question.
Thanks Jill

wow, I love that you posted this. I LOVE the looks and info on that applecheeks one. It’s MESH — how cool is that??? I definitely wanted one with a soft fabric (no pul, since I heard it will just fill up with water), and SNAPS so it doesn’t snag swimsuits, so I think this applecheeks is the winner. Kim, do you have an affiliate link I can buy from? I’d love to give you “credit” since you’re the one who introduced me to this diaper.

Does anyone else have experience with this diaper? Run small or big? My daughter is 15lbs, wondering if I should go with the small or large?

My son is 23 lb and 14 months and on the smallest snap settings on the size 2 applecheeks swim diapers. He is pretty tall and skinny though. Before he started walking he was on a bigger size. I LOVE this diaper! It fits so wonderful! The snaps are amazing and the mesh is soft. Would highly recommend it.

We loved Bummies Swimmies at 4-7 months and I bought a smaller one for the babe due in May. The velcro is easy to use and the mesh liner very soft.
At 8 months and 24lb we bought an Imse Vimse, which is great for putting on someone who is trying to escape. It still fits at 26 months and 28 lb. Love them both. Both did their job keeping the poop in.

I have a Kushies and a Bummis. The Kushies holds 0 liquid, which I didn’t like as my daughter one two occasions peed as we were leaving our hotel room for the pool (she was 2 at the time and it left a BIG mess). The Bummis holds some liquid, so I liked it a lot better. I do like the tie on the Kushies though.
Kushies does have a THIN layer of terry inside, which seems more comfortable and does clean well. Bummis has mesh inside, and cleaned well too.
