    Question Monkey Doodlez Swim nappies?

    DS starts swimming next week and so far I haven't been able to find him a swim nappy, so am looking on a few different sites. I love the look of the Monkey Doodlez, but not sure on the sizing. He is about 10 or 11 kg (health centre checkup is next wk) so not sure if I should go for the Medium (up to 11.3 kg) or go the large (11.3kg - 15.9kg). Any advice? Are these good swim nappies?

    Theres a fair difference in the med and large IMO.

    Id probably go large. Does your DS have chubby legs? Chubby tummy?

    Or is he like my DD1 and really skinny? Medium fits her well and she is 12kg, where as my DD1 who is 11kg the medium doesnt fit well due the her body shape (belly and legs..LOL).

    I love the MD swim nappies....used to stock them when i sold MCN!

    We've got the large & have had it for about a year - DS is about 13kg now (can't remember what he weighed @ 18 mths though). But it fitted him well then & still now. He's never poo'ed in the pool so I can't say how well they hold in cas of accident, but I'm happy with it.

    I'd go the large. I think the med could be quite tight..hard to know but isn't it!

    his shape sounds similar to DS' and i went the large MD swim nappies. And we loved them.
    If you get a large and its too big they may let you exchange it - as in try it on first beofre you go swimming? Places let you do this with MCNs so why not with swimmers.
