Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of a washable and reusable baby diaper with central interior opening. The preferred embodiment of said diaper is comprised of two main components including an approximately hourglass shaped two layer outer containing element, and a contoured absorbent soaker pad with a plurality of fabric layers sewn together. The outer fabric of the containing element is laminated on its interior surface to provide dryness protection. A unique longitudinal central interior opening provides a means for keeping said soaker pad in place during wear, containing solid waste, and allowing for ease of washing and use.
