- 2003 August 2, Cathy, “ot - nappy/diaper fabric”, in misc.kids.breastfeeding, Google Groups:
- I am in New Zealand, and there seems to be very little in the way of nappy wraps available. I have got used to using a really simple fleece wrap with velcro, but the leg gussets are made with a waterproof polyester that doesn't seem to stand up to the rigours of urine!
- 2009, Heidi Murkoff, “What You May Be Wondering About”, in What to Expect: The Toddler Years, 2 edition, Simon & Schuster, →ISBN, unnumbered page:
- So try to secure his nappy so it can't be loosened or removed. This may require using nappy pins to fasten terry nappies (rather than using a nappy wrap with Velcro closings), pinning the nappy to your toddler's vest with nappy pins, or using snug, pull-on plastic pants over the nappy (which might increase the risk of nappy rash, so make sure you change nappies frequently).
- 2018, David Care, The Irish Dad's Survival Guide to Pregnancy [& Beyond], The O'Brien Press, →ISBN, unnumbered page:
- Changing a non-disposable fabric nappy. Follow the instructions as above, plus: […] Make sure the nappy is folded correctly before you begin. (If you're using a waterproof nappy wrap, insert the nappy into it first.)
