Meanings
-
(Commonwealth, Ireland, rare) Synonym of swim diaper.
Many parents might baulk at the idea of teaching babies as young as three months to swim. Apart from the hassles of pool nappies, cold change rooms and chlorine in little ones' eyes, it might seem counterintuitive, as well as highly stressful for parents and babies, to teach bubs to swim before they can even crawl.
