Been using this fold since the early 70's when my first son was born. I was still using it until l retired from my daycare job in 2016. It's great that cloth nappies/diapers are still being used today. Go you good mums.
Hi My mum used this fold for me and my brother who is now 40. In our country we only have disposables for about 25 years. Here everyone used this fold from newborns to toddlers. Its good that you invented it again becouse its very easy and really adjustable.
This was supper popular when I started flats with my baby at the time a couple of years ago, and I am coming around to trying it this way? Ya sold me on no poop in the folds to contend with!
Thank you so much! This is my favorite fold to try so far. I’m branching out to flats after using prefolds because my baby is in between size 1 and 2 prefolds for the brand I started with. This one is so adaptable and efficient. My mnemonic for remembering it is “Two mountains, one big, one little. The little one goes in and then out. The big one follows and goes back out.”
OH MY GOODNESS I just came across this video and I made this fold with a GMD large muslin, stuck it on my 7mo. It is SO cute and functional!! No snappy needed for us! Awesome!!
This is the best fold ever! Holy smokes thanks so much! The fluff butt may actually fit into some pants now haha. It is so trim and the best fold that I have got to fit inside my covers to date.
You are a genius! I'm going to try this one tonight. I've been struggling to fit the origami and kite folds in certain wool covers, and I think this is just what I need. Thanks 😁
this fold is awesome. and quick and easy. versatile too. keeps good shape just as you said. and utilizes absorbancy... to be, where it is needed most.. also with options to increase or add a soaker too. fantastic!
Oh my gosh, this is incredible! Thank you!! I really liked the origami fold but there is barely any absorbency and soo much fabric in the wings. I can’t wait to try this! Thank you!!!
Sherisa Raising Mothers - I’m so glad it’s working out for you! We love this for nighttime with a hemp doubler sandwiched inside. Thanks for the feedback, mama! 😘
I kind of can't believe the Pickman fold was literally just created and is named after this mama who invented it! Definitely a solid way to fold flats and works great for my littles man (6 months) and my big girl who is about to turn 3 (for night time accidents)!
This isnt new. Sorry. Its a fold that i used after learning it from another video about 12 years ago. I think the nappy lady also has this fold example in her videos. That being said this is like the spear- independently reinvented without outside influence all over the world. You figured it out all by yourself! And then shared your knowledge just as people have all over the world forever. I think thats so awesome. Well done.
This one is prob the best. I saw a lot of foulding...but yes this might be the best (most of the fabric is there where it should be). It looks a little bit like origami, but after a few times pract. i can do it!
This looks like a fold I can do. I am trying to stop using my pockets and i like this becaise I can have the ready to go and just add a bamboo insert in the middle.
Hey, um, a lady who uses disposables told me that if the explosion happens away from home, you have to carry dirty diapers around in a bag with you, however many they soil. How do you handle flatfolds on the go, or are they more like lockdown diapers?
Are these the muslin or Birdseye? I have some stretchy flats that I love that I’ll try with this but, the non stretchy ones may work better with this. Thank you in advance!
