Cloth Nappy Fit Guide

Pekpi Nappy fit

1. Snap in or pocket

Click-in your inserts either onto the top of the nappy or inside the pocket depending on your preference. Insert 1 is an Anchor Insert designed to be used on its own folded under at the end for extra absobency. Pair Anchor Insert 1 with the Hourglass insert 2 for maximum day time absorbency. For night time or for heavy wetters also add our 3 layer Tri-fold Insert giving 9 more absorbent layers.

2. Find your fit

Lay baby on the open nappy with the back of the nappy sitting above the hips, bring the wings from the back over to meet the waist snaps.

Try fitting the top row of snaps a little tighter around the tummy and the second row of snaps a little looser if baby has larger thighs or a looser fit for a bigger belly and tighter on the second row of snaps for thinner thighs.

If you feel material is “sagging” or “gaping” in the crotch try using the rise snaps to shorten the nappy for a trimmer fit.

3. Check it

Ensure baby is comfortable by checking the tummy fit and maintain a two finger gap so baby is still comfortable when sitting. Arrange the gussets/elastics into babys natural undie crease. You may notice a little gaping around the tummy area at times when baby is not sitting and their tummy is flat, this is considered normal and gives baby room to bend.

Newborn & Smaller Fit Demo

Pekpi Modern Cloth Nappies are designed to be a 'one size fits most' - able to fit your newborn babe from the very first days, right through to toddlerhood.

Here we share how to customise the fit of our reusable Cloth Nappy to fit your Newborn baby. Using our easy snap button design and customisable fit you can tailor to suit your infants unique shape.

This method also allows the nappy to sit lower on bubs tummy to avoid rubbing their belly button and creates a smaller opening to hug little legs.
