Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

Lovely thick nappies, very easy to put on and easily adjustable (with poppers) for a snug fit from a skinny newborn to a chunky 2 year old.

Used with a single booster inside they are very absorbant and easily last 3 hours or so during the day, but you'll probably need an extra booster layer at night.

They wash well and dry quickly in a tumble dryer.

Not cheap, but worth every penny and I just wish I'd discovered them earlier.

I am now using my Motherease one-size nappies and wraps for my third child and they're great: they fit well, they're easy to wash, don't stain and quick to dry... and clearly they last for years! Surprisingly I have found the press-stud fastening wraps much easier to use and more reliable than the velcro ones (partly because they're more difficult for toddlers to unfasten).

Not an exciting nappy - but does a great job - simple to use washes and wears well. We use the snap in boosters now otherwise the basic nappy isn't very absorbant for a toddler. As they are birth to potty great value - a real nappy workhorse!!

Excellent. Definitely the best of all washable nappies we've used. Very reliable, hardly ever have leaks. Wash really well too.

This work-horse of a nappy from Canada is a parent's favourite and rightly so...

I find popper nappies really easy to use, and the poppers have never broken on my Motherease nappies, unlike some other brands.

ME nappies are not as quick to dry as microfibre nappies, so best if you have space for drying or an outside line.

The fit is great - lovely shape and slimline. I would expect leaks after 2-3 hours and I wouldn't put my 23 month old in this nappy over night (tbh only a massively padded nappy at night will do!).

I thoroughly recommend the more expensive "stay dry" version which means the baby's bum isn't in contact with the wet cotton layer. But they are more expensive, and ME are not the cheapest on the market. They do have a very high resale value though.

However, what Motherease to REALLY well are their outer wraps. Having tried out many wraps, I can confidently say that ME wraps come out tops. They very rarely leak, fit different sized babies as you can adjust the poppers at the waist and leg, wash really well and dry really quick. They also have a "breathable" feel to the PUL material they are made of, not at all plasticky. And they also come in laods of fun designs!
