But, she's pooped in both &amp; it hasn't been too traumatic yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1736448 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:49:24 +0000 bunnylove08 1736448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the side snap diapers but one time DD pooped in her pull up reusable and I was a newby didnt think to rip the sides off... well I had her stand on the toilet and DH held her and I did the grab (bunch up the back of the diaper and try to hold the poo - not sure if i'm explaining it right) and then pull slowly one side at a time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1736413 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 14:39:43 +0000 Radish 1736413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Yeah, they will probably only hold up a few washes, but it helps make a pack last the whole summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1736190 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:38:15 +0000 Smurfette 1736190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: we have to use a reusable for swim lessons. They won't let you in the pool with a disposable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1736173 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 13:31:55 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1736173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: Really? The ones we had were on pretty sturdy. Maybe it's because they were a foreign brand, it only way was to cut that thing. Perhaps it was my technique ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735544 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 09:11:24 +0000 Ree723 1735544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol, been there! We use the side snap reusable diapers so it's easier, but you still have one leg you need to pull out. We unsnapped over the toilet so whatever was sort of solid could fall in there, then we went in the shower with her and cleaned up the rest in there. And then afterwards, sprayed the shower down with bleach and cleaned it from there. As for the swim diaper, we rinsed it completely and then threw it in a bucket of Napisan to let it soak for a day or two before washing it by hand as per normal.</p> <p>We went through a run there of about five times in a row of LO doing a poo as soon as she got out of the pool but before we could change her - not fun!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735440 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:31:50 +0000 Foodnerd81 1735440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Radish: what?? You can wash disposable swim diapers? Tell me more. </p> <p>This thread is exactly the reason we haven't bought a reusable swim diaper yet. We were talking about it in my play group yesterday and the consensus was that we would probably cut it off an throw it out. One mom had a one piece iplay suit and I was like, yeah that would be a nightmare if she pooped! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735416 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:20:57 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1735416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@edelweiss: the ymca pool makes us use a rubber cover anyway...so at least i know i wont be responsible for a code brown in public ;) thats the stuff of nightmares, for real. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735409 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:18:46 +0000 edelweiss 1735409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: let us dearly pray that they thought of it, and performed years of testing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735395 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:11:49 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1735395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@edelweiss: i was thinking that too. The applecheeks fits really snug but it seems like runny poop would go right through it. Surely they thought of that when designing, right?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735381 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:06:40 +0000 edelweiss 1735381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>so funny! he hasn't yet, but it's one of the reasons i shelled out the money for an appelcheeks diaper that has side snaps (so hopeuflly i don't have to pull off a wet poopy diaper, i can snap it off like a regular diaper). we'll see if it actually helps--your point about the remnant water mixing with the poop makes me worry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735380 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:06:27 +0000 Radish 1735380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ew. Did you know you can reuse disposable swim diapers- just wash them in the washing machine? That way if they do poop you just throw it away, but all the times they don't poop you can just reuse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735361 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:01:45 +0000 Ra 1735361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. Yes. So gross! We weren't at home and I essentially had to scrub the poop out with my bare hands. It was the stuff nightmares are made of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735341 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 07:55:38 +0000 Smurfette 1735341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am dreading this. It is so hard to get off I am afraid! Every swim lesson I hold my breathe hoping their is no poop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735336 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 07:53:59 +0000 Alivoo01 1735336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've only gone swimming a handful of times, and thankfully, no poops yet (thank goodness). I do hold my breath everytime I put him in one and when I take him out of it... haha</p> <p>That's too funny your toilet ate your diaper. It's thinking "oh good gosh that's terrible. Let me take care of that for you. You'll thank me." LOL!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735256 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 06:56:11 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1735256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: our apple cheeks still fits a second summer :) I bought that one specifically to avoid said situation ;) but lo has never pooped in it. Go figure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735245 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 06:39:32 +0000 Weagle 1735245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: Pull-ups are designed so that the sides year apart pretty easily! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735213 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 05:47:48 +0000 avivoca 1735213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet, but I'm sure it's coming. We have two, one that has side snaps and a Bummi's Swimmi diaper that fits like a regular cloth diaper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735198 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 03:45:28 +0000 Pumuckl 1735198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It hasn't happened for us yet but we are known to getting rid of diaper blowouts in the shower. We just put him in the shower and then take the diaper off and hose him off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735185 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 01:47:50 +0000 lamariniere 1735185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It happened just one time. It was right when we started potty training and, fortunately, he pooped after he got out of the pool. It was pretty solid though and easy to take care of. He hasn't done it since! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735180 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 01:35:22 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1735180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man. E has only done that once during our last vacation, by the pool. I was mortified! But the diaper was dry and so was everything in it. It was an easy change, thank goodness!</p> <p>I think I'd cut it off. She pooped in a pull-up before and DH and I were running around trying to figure out how to get it off. We cut it off. I have no idea how people use pull-ups on a daily basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735171 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 01:01:07 +0000 googly-eyes 1735171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: I'm sorry but I'm smiling because thats's pretty funny albeit gross! Aaand just because I said that its going to happen here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735164 Wed, 02 Jul 2014 00:16:12 +0000 78h2o 1735164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Applecheeks... The size I have goes up to 35 lbs.</p> <p>That's too funny that the diaper got flushed! We're you at home or in a public restroom? Glad it didn't cause a flood! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735158 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 23:57:43 +0000 autumnlove 1735158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, it was gross so we bought a side snap diaper after that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735151 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 23:18:41 +0000 Doodlesmama 1735151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We mostly swim at our house, so we put him in the grass and hose him off! It has only happened twice and that seemed like the best option. There is no way to get it off without making a mess, those swim diapers are so tight! Not sure what we would do at a public pool. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735140 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 23:04:16 +0000 mrskc 1735140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: we were laughing about it too! Pretty hilarious. I just looked at my Amazon order history and looks like I ordered a size 2 last summer! So should still fit him! It's just not as cute as the Honest Co one that got flushed. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735134 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 22:59:09 +0000 birdofafeather 1735134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>just once and she's in a swim diaper several times a week. we were at home and my DH dealt with it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735128 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 22:56:01 +0000 immabeetoo 1735128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: we use the applecheeks size 2 ones and they're pretty easy... sorry but I laughed out loud that he flushed the diaper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-pooped-in-their-reusable-swim-diaper#post-1735108 Tue, 01 Jul 2014 22:33:43 +0000 mrskc 1735108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: we have a applecheeks snap one that we used last summer...
