Best Answer

Swim diapers are not waterproof.

They are manufactured without the SAP (super-absorbant polymer) that makes most modern diapers swell up and hold a lot of liquid.

A super absorbant diaper would become very large and heavy if worn while swimming.

While alot of people assumed that a swim diapers are absorbent and contain urine like a regular diaper, they do not. The purpose of a swim diaper is only to contain solid waste. With a snug fit in the legs and waist (which is key to proper function) the fiber lining encourages the solid waste to cling to the fiber, but is doesn't have an absorbency layer.

Can people wear diapers in swimming pool?

It depends on the type of diaper - there are disposable and reusable/washable/cloth swim diapers. As you can guess by the names you can reuse the reusable swim diapers - you need to wash it with hot water and dry it in the dryer or outside in the line. The disposable swim diapers are meant for a single usage only. Even if your child has not peed or pooed in it you should toss it because it will not contain the next time you use it - it won't fit snug again. This is the reason why I chose reusable swim diapers for my kids and I recommend them to everyone.
