Frugal Diapering: NO-SEW Bedwetter Pants
Rate this post:Gerber Birdseye Flatfold Diapers |
You can make your own - NO sewing required!
You will need: Two padded training pants (you can also use underpants, but padded training pants will be more absorbent), one or two flat or prefolded diapers, four diaper pins and a waterproof outer cover.
Or use a waterproof covered training pant for your outside layer - for a two-in-one combo!
Using the cloth diaper, fold it into a long thick rectangular pad. Lay this inside one of the training pants, so the folded diaper pad lays down the center of the training pant.

Place another pin through the opposite short end of the diaper pad and back waist. Pin from the outside of the training pant, so as not to cause discomfort to your child.
Next, add the second training pant on the inside of the first, so you now have a training pant | folded diaper pad | training pant sandwich.
Add nylon, vinyl or other waterproof pull-on pants over top of everything. Or check into some of the newer fleece pull-on pants!
Dappi Nylon Diaper Pants |
baby-likenylon or vinyl pants. Your
bedwetter sandwichnow has four layers - training pant | folded diaper pad | training pant | waterproof cover.
Use the two remaining diaper pins to pin through the three layers - two training pants and one waterproof outer cover - this time placing one diaper pin at each side waist.
Push the pins through the same area as the stitching on the waterproof cover to prevent damage.
These pins help to hold everything all together, and will allow your child the independence to quickly pull up and down their Bedwetter Pants when they need to go to the toilet.
If your child needs even more absorbency, you can add another layer of folded diaper, but this could be very bulky.
These Bedwetter Pants can also be used during the day, for older children not quite ready, or not completely potty-trained.
