Introducing the Teddies

We are extremely excited to be introducing a new nappy to Baby Bare.

Baby Bare Teddies

Our new Teddies are on their way to us right now. After months and months or thinking, testing, contemplating and working our Baby Bare magic, this nappy is finally ready to be seen in public.

The Teddy Bare is a side snapping nappy, this means the front of the nappy overlaps the back tabs, rather then the back tabs overlapping the front panel of the nappy. It gives you a flat front on the nappy and helps show off the cute prints a little more. The picture below helps demonstrate this.

The nappy has two rows of snaps allowing you to adjust the fit for the legs and waist separately. You can snap the right size for the legs and then snap further back (1 or even 2 snaps) to get it tight on the tummy. Tummy elastic also enables a firmer fit in the front, eliminating tummy gape.

The nappy has been designed to fit a large size range of children from about 4.5-5kg through to about 18kg. The nappy may fit from newborn depending on the size and proportion of the baby. We are hoping to get lots of feedback letting us know how small a bub has managed to be wrapped up in a Teddy.

The absorbent pad of the nappy is a 65cm long foldable insert which is topped with microsuede. You can also fold it back on top to have bamboo fleece against your child. The insert can be folded in half or more towards the front if that is where you use it. The bamboo is beautiful quality 450GSM fleece, making it very thirsty.

Some useful questions:

Can I use my existing Baby Bare inserts in this nappy?
Yes. The Snap in soaker set from the Bare Cub nappy fits in this nappy. While they snap in, you may want to lay them in and further towards the front to stop them creating a bump in the crutch where they end. We will have lots more info with use instructions and tips and tricks to come.

Can I buy extra inserts for the Teddy Bare?
Yes, you can purchase additional snap in inserts for the Teddy Bare. They are listed with inserts and boosters on our website.

How does this nappy fit for such a wide range of sizes without adjusting the rise?
The nappy will naturally fold across the front rather then needing to snap down.  This allows a more natural fit as the nappy will fold to suit your child in the rise if there is excess fabric. The nappy will also sit higher across the tummy on smaller babies, and move towards the hips as they grow. The snaps also adjust the waist and rise as they pull the nappy further up and back to fit on smaller babies.

Can the nappy be boosted?
This nappy is extremely absorbent. In the event you feel you need more absorbency it can be placed under or folded into the snap in insert. There is plenty of room to add a booster to this nappy, you may however find you need to adjust the snap sizing when filling the nappy more.

Will more colours and prints be released?
Yes. We plan to bring more colours and prints through out the year to build the available range in the Teddy Bare.

Is the nappy available in PUL?
At this stage the nappy is not available in PUL.

How does the fit compare to the Bare Cub & Silky Bare nappies?
Teddy is a reverse of our Bare Cub nappy. The width between the crotch is the same as is the rise of the nappy. The nappy fits a wider waist as the double snaps along the side allow it to open up wider for larger tummies and thighs. The insert also effects the fit, this insert allows a lot of customisation which can help fit and absorbency depending on where it is placed. The elastics have been top stitched giving an easier fit with no need to roll them back in.
