| Fastening Prefold Diapers Really is Easy! Some diapers don't have any fasteners, such as prefold diaper. As a new cloth diaperer, prefold diapers intimidated me as they weren't shaped anything like pampers and didn't seem intuitive to use. With some practice and permission given to do it wrong a few times, I had it down pat and now love the flexibility and infinite ability to get the fit "just right". Advantages to using diapers without fasteners - there are no fasteners to break, wear out or unintentionally snag other fabric in the wash. They allow you to toally customize the fit of the diaper. Disadvantages: More of a learning curve than other diapers. Takes some patience at the beginning of that curve. Why Snappi's? Because they are effective, fast and easy to use. Use a Snappi to secure a prefold and the result is a snug fitting diaper in all the areas that you need it to be snug - around those little legs and around the waist. Our Snappis are sold individually. How many do you need? Well, that depends on you as a diaper changer and if you are a person that misplaces things. If you have only one change area and you always put things back where they belong, you only need one Snappi per 6 months of use. If you have more than one change area and are using Snappis full time, or you want some variety, then more than one Snappi is the choice for you. We recommend that you replace your Snappi every 6 months. If you are buying all your Snappis at once, get a minimum of 4 to last you the first 2 years.
