How to put on a cloth nappy

A cloth nappy should be put on slightly different to a disposable. Make sure the nappy sits low at the back and then pull the front of the nappy all the way over your baby’s tummy, pull the side tabs from the back around the legs to the front and fasten the snaps/velcro. Always make sure there are no gaps at the legs and that enough rise snaps are closed to get a snug fit. 

Some cloth nappies close on the side instead of the front. Here is a video on how to put on a side-snapping cloth nappy
