Lay the diaper with the two parallel stiched lines running horizontally and fold over each other as shown in the diagram.  Lay on top of a waterproof cover and fasten securely to the baby.As boys get older, folding the diaper to create extra padding in front is the most popular.  Lay on top of a waterproof cover and fasten securely to the baby.A modified version of this fold is useful in containing very loose stools, or if you want to secure the diaper with fasteners.Before Using the Diapers The diapers need to be pre-washed on hot at least once before. Two or three times, and dried in between, is preferable as this causes the diapers to fluff up and become more absorbent.  The diapers will shrink and get thicker with the first few washes.  This shrinkage has been allowed for when designing the diapers.
