Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit
The award-winning Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit from Splash About is made from 1mm thick neoprene and features full fecal leak protection with an integrated, reusable neoprene Happy Nappy™ swim diaper.
The waist and thigh ribs of the Happy Nappy™ are designed to fit snugly, creating a seal that holds in solids. The upper body coverage helps keep your baby warm in the water for longer.
The Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit can be worn alone or paired with the Diaper Wrap and liners for added leak protection, making cleaning and changing even easier.
Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit FAQs
The Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit can be difficult to get on at first as it is designed to fit snugly to the baby. Roll the top of the Wetsuit down over the Happy Nappy™. Try to imagine it like putting on a pair of tights. Put the legs in one at a time and pull the Happy Nappy™ up until it fits onto the baby’s bottom. You can then roll the top up and pop the baby’s arms in one at a time and zip up.
The Happy Nappy™ component of the Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit requires a correct fit for complete leak protection. Since babies vary in size, it's essential to measure your baby accurately and consult the size guide to ensure you purchase the right size. Measure your baby while lying flat and not immediately after a feed. Take measurements around their tummy, across the belly button, and at the fullest part of their thigh. When worn, there should be enough space to fit a finger comfortably around the edges of the seal, with no red marks
No. The Happy Nappy™ is designed to be used without any other swim nappy underneath and can be worn in this way for general swimming, inflatable pools or the ocean. However, some organised swimming classes require a double diaper system; in such cases, you will also need to purchase a Silver-Lining or Cotton Nappy Wrap to wear underneath. This system can also make changing and washing a soiled Happy Nappy™ easier.
No. As with disposable swim diapers, the Happy Nappy™ within the Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit does not hold in urine. It is designed to allow water to pass in and out of the nappy to prevent it from becoming waterlogged. However, it is incredibly reliable in containing solids.
To keep your Happy Nappy™ Wetsuit in good condition, we recommend hand washing in cool water and drying away from direct sunlight. However, we understand that soiled diapers may occasionally require machine washing. If you need to machine wash, please do so at 85°F using a non-biological detergent. Please note that frequent machine washing may affect the longevity of the product.
