How can leaks be prevented?

Grasshopper™ Quick-Dry Bamboo All-In-One diapers are designed to provide ample natural absorbency for most babies. Follow the following guidelines to avoid leaks:

1. The diaper is designed so that the outer fabric around the legs naturally rolls in toward the baby. When putting the diaper on, a quick glance will confirm that the diaper has rolled inward, hiding the absorbent inner fabric. Ensure that the thigh snap is adjusted snugly enough that the diaper stays against the baby's thighs if you lift the legs (a diaper adjusted too loosely can allow leaks).
2. Change wet or soiled diapers promptly - this is more comfortable for your child, better for skin, and prevents leaks caused by "overloading" a diaper. If you can't change promptly, consider adding a doubler for extra absorbency.
3. Never add fabric softener to your diaper wash or use a detergent with built in fabric softeners. Fabric softeners interfere with the ability of the inner fabric to absorb moisture.
4. If you are following all of these suggestions and are having leaks with diapers that are completely soaked, your child most likely needs the additional absorbency of a doubler.
