Can these covers be used while the cord stump is still healing? By folding down the top or something?

I am also not totally sure. We also used disposables for the first week. We had not yet discovered these. These have a pretty low rise though. They have a much lower rise than our one size pocket diapers did. I would guess that they would work fine for an average size newborn.

It doesn't snap down like some newborn covers but it does have a pretty low rise. If you need it a little lower, you can tuck the top down between the baby and prefold/insert, I haven't had any leakage doing this.

I'm not totally sure because we used disposables for the first week or two. However, in general, they fit below the belly button. I've heard it described as "bikini cut" when you use with trifolds.

Greetings Joe, The most common option to keep the cord cover in place is double sided tape. If you have carpeted floors you can use velcro tape. If you have any questions, please let us know.

You have to use them together. I do think there are strictly covers that can be bought... but am not sure about that.

It is not recommended to fold for long periods of time because the foam will not recover. Instead it should be stored flat on the mattress or rolled up and not folded.

Not easily. The end of the cord is folded over and clamped with a metal ring.

Not unless you draped them over the whole unit much like you would a quilt. I usually fold king size sheets once. This is a great product. I've had mine several years and it's just like new.

it looks like the area between the folds is about 1 3/4 inches. it might work.

Fold them towards the back. They serve as spacers between the mudflap and the fabric

There is a hole in the bottom for the cord, so if it is laying on its side it would not seal. The cover is BIG it sticks out about 4 inches too!

My son was about 8lbs when we started using these and I didn't need to fold down the front. I did however, fold them down for the fist few weeks (until his umbilical cord healed). Now that he is 17 lbs I use them with the next size up at night (heavy wetter).

Try a king or queen-size sheet folded in half. I would glue it, but you, of course, could sew it shut. Or just put it under a mattress pad.

No. You can fold it up (but, of course, you can do that with any electrical cord). It comes with a reasonable twist tie ... perhaps if you keep that around (knowing how much cord you need in the "maximum extension" instance) things will appear neater.

The clear cover is not deep enough. When put to use, the cord needs to be bent much more than I feel comfortable with in order to close the cover. It's what is being offered, so take it or leave it. I don't close the cover entirely, I prefer a 'mostly protected' outlet over a 'stressed cord'.

These covers have bungee tighteners. These should be able to be pulled tight. It Might be a little "sloppy" but it's not about looks.

James, I used stakes and bungie (sp?) cords to hold it down. The issue is when you apply tension to the cover by way of the grommets, it lifts the edge of the cover anywhere from an inch to 2 inches (depending upon terrain and how much tension you have on the grommets). This will allow dirt, debris, leaves, etc. to slide under the cover. My issue is leaves so I bought the tubes and they worked great in holding down the edges all the way around. Now, you can use anything you want that has sufficient weight and durability due to weather conditions where you live. The cover and tubes lasted all fall and winter with no issues except one of the grommets pulled loose from the cover. Hope this helps and if you have anymore questions don't hesitate to ask. Jim R.

You can, but i wouldn't recommend doing it very often. Like the rest of this couch, the covers are poorly made and with several washes, i bet they'd be prone to tearing (I'm basing that on me unzipping them to be washed and looking at thow poorly sewn they are). I've washed them, but i'd really just suggest NOT BUYING THIS COUCH.
