We use FB's partly for this reason. I love prefolds and when I think he will lay still for more than 10 seconds we use prefolds. But most of the time he is in a FB.
Anyone else go to mostly (or all) aios for their wiggly toddler?

I have a wriggly one, too. But I just lay my PF in the wrap before I chase her down. It's just like an AIO in that I lay her on it (or wrap it around her as she's stanidng) and fasten it.
But, certainly do what you want to do! We have AIOs for when we go out and such.

Nope, don't do AIOs. But I'll put a fitted on him coverless, so its the same number of snaps as an AIO.

I like putting PFs on him a lot too, but at about 15mo he sometimes is good for changes (gets a PF) and sometimes running away (gets a fitted which I put on him when he's standing

)

Around the house he's usually just wears a fitted, simple snap up and send him toddling on his way

We never used PF's. We use FB's, wonderoos, HH, and other fitted diaps. DD is a little wiggle worm and sometimes it is a battle to change her

AIO's are pretty much all we use for DS, and dh's request

. Mainly Bumkins, Kushies, Rumpsters, FB's and Wonderoos. I like doing it that way. Very quick and easy.

This is precisely why I wonder if I should just box my fitteds up right now and then get them out again for when he's a speed demon and won't stay still! Mmm...decisions, decisions!

This might turn into a discussion on HOW to change a wiggly toddler! :LOL
I have to say...my sister has a son 3 weeks older than mine, and she told me that when she lays her ds down (she uses sposies
![]()
) she stares into his eyes and intently sings him "You are my Sunshine", or sometimes "Away in a Manger". Something with a haunting, melody...and it HYPNOTIZES HIM!!! He smiles and stares at her mouth the whole time!
I was skeptical. I thought "sure, it will work once...then he'll see right through my attempts" but NO!!!! It has worked for every tough diaper change for a week!!!

Laying him down is usually a battle, but if he gets to hold the wet cloth wipes and hand them to me one by one as I need them, or if I give him something particularly interesting to play with, we can get the job done, including wool soaker on top of fitted. It's not easy though and many times a huge battle. |
