Swimming Nappies

DS is 6 this week and loves swimming. Until now we've been getting away with the largest sized swimming nappies in the shops, but we really need to find a supplier for "adult" nappies (preferably disposable, sorry The Environment).

Anyone got any links?

Many thanks.

I don't know about disposable ones, but if you want I can look round at the various WAHM reusable sellers and see who makes them - most of those would happily make in bigger sizes for you

You could try contacting BabyProofingPlus.com who are located in Canada. They sell the Swim Pals disposable Swim Diaper which comes in larger sizes, 3T (30-40lbs) and 4T (40lbs+)
Picture
Manufacturer is My Pool Pal for whom Incy Wincy is a uk distributor, but Incy Wincy don't seem to sell the disposables. Perhaps there are import/export restrictions.

When contacting BabyProofingPlus.com may be best to tell them that uk distributor for My Pool Pal does not sell them, and ask if the package can be marked Special Needs Swimwear, so that with luck it will be VAT exempt when it arrives in the UK. International shipping cost could make it costly to import. Using a slow delivery method will help to keep cost down, rather than express carriers like UPS/FedEx.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

I'm assuming WAHM is Work At Home Mothers, Oxygen? Do you have any more details.
