What is a pocket diaper?

Pocket diapers have an hourglass shape and elastic in the legs and waist. They consist of a waterproof outer layer and a stay-dry inner layer. Pockets differ from all-in-ones in that the front or back edge of the cover is left open for stuffing with an absorbent insert that can be replaced without replacing the entire diaper. Many pocket diapers can also be condidered all-in-twos.
