Diapering_: The Pocket Fold
Thanks to Julia for this Frugal Baby Tip!
Here is a link to a good illustration of the fold tha I dub "the
pocket fold". It creates a little pocket to catch the poo in. I
always make sure that the smallest point of the "v" is right below
her labia so that the poop goes straight into the pocket, and nowhere
else.
Once I really got the hang of this fold, and started using *good*
prefolds, I *never* have leaks. In fact just this morning I was
amazed that I didn't. When we woke up she had a MAJOR explosion in
there, but it was all contained.
