Contour Diapers are a step between a prefold and a fitted diaper. They can be made from a variety of material also, from cotton, bamboo, to hemp, or a combination of them etc. They also require a diaper cover or wrap. Similar to disposables, they are shaped like an hourglass & usually have a thick padding in the middle. These diapers can be laid directly in a wrap/diaper cover without having to be folded & can therefore be easier than prefolds to put on a wiggly baby - but less cost than fitted diapers. Contour diapers also need to be pinned or snappi'd into place when used with certain types of diaper covers - such as pull-up pants, plastic pants, bubble wrap, & some wool covers. |
