First time mom and want to be prepared for the coming summer. What type of diapers do you use for pool/beach? Do I need any reusable waterproof diapers to go on top of a regular diaper? Recommendations for non-toxic sunscreens (worried about my baby licking her arms/hands, etc).
Thanks

We used little swimmers swim diapers. For sunscreen we used Hello Bello or Babyganics. We spend most days at the pool. My daughter also wears the arm covered swim suits to protect her arms more

I made my own ss, many easy recipes and they tell you how many spf per nonnaino zinc to up the spf. The ingredients lasted years and you can know exactly whats in it. We did sun hats, long sleeves and shorts to cover skin. We did pool diapers but didn't feel comfortable with our babies in pool water due to all the chemicals.

Pools recommend to double up- usually disposable and reusable on top. For the beach I just use the the reusable and bathers on top no disposable- if he poops, the elastics catch everything nothing leaks. The disposable underneath is just a double security for the pools but for the beach they don’t need a disposable they usually don’t stay in the water nowhere near as long as the pools, usually just dipping their lil feet, a bit of their bum wet. Since beach water is so cold. Reusable swim diapers are made to replace the disposable altogether

Here for the replies.

We use reusable swim diapers - no regular diapers underneath. Goldfish gives them Sprouts. I found something on Amazon.
Mineral Sunscreens safe for baby and you - Think baby, pipette, blue lizard
And a BIG hat - I usually put my toddler in long sleeves because trying to get sunscreen on his limbs is like fighting a crocodile.
