Perfect nappy fit idea

[Lordy]

As we all know, when we open up a new nappy to put on we have to manipulate it to fit properly and not bunch up in the wrong places.
There are many ways l have been doing this over the years;
Bending it down the middle
Shaking it like a rug
Twisting it
Etc

After probably 20 years of being unable to decide which is the most effective way, l have now found a completely new and probably unconventional way to do it and l wanted to share it with you all because for me, it's a game changer!

Some of you may even have been doing it this way for years but what would this site be if we didn't share experiences.
I hope l can explain this in way that isn't too confusing!

Open the nappy.
Lay it on a flat surface and fold length ways down the middle like a paper aeroplane and push flat.
The nappy should be 'cupped' towards you.
Now for the clever bit..
Keeping the pressure on the top where it folds and keeping the bottom half still, slide the top half away from you, constantly rolling the fold out to the end.
Be careful not to pull the inner leak guards off as you do it.
Turn the nappy over and repeat.

Please try this and let me know

I'm glad whenever I see requests for clarification that don't come across as criticism at all. Regardless of topic, I think it is great whenever anyone on this site wants to share information on how to or why do something. It adds to the experience. Thank you to all three of you.

I really didn't want to be the first to comment and I'm not saying that your explanation was crap but I was lost after, "The nappy should be 'cupped' towards you".
I could genuinely visualise everything up until that point.
A video would be great.

I've tried to upload a video to demonstrate, but it won't upload because of the type of file it is.
I'm a complete luddite, and trying to work out hoe to do it will be more difficult than trying to explain it.
Sorry everybody
