Which is the one that you put at the bottom of the nappy pile and only use if you're VERY behind on the laundry?
Kushies is mine!

i dont mind the no-fold either.

RosiePosie, apparently with hemp, you have to be really careful to pre-wash it loads before it reaches maximum absorbency. Of course, maybe you've already done that!

boots kushie-style aio...don't bother!

bambino mio nappies are great, but not keen on the wraps. bumble is current fave, esp for night.

starlover · 12/09/2005 19:56

we're using bumbles at night now! thanks to your suggestion roosmum!
almost got one of those boots aio the other day, but covering felt a bit plasticky

Generally not a pocket nappies fan. I do like the look of Fuzzis, but can't relax when they are on, in case they leak (ds's speciality - making leaks)
Like Dizzy diapers, but they annoyingly vary in size and can be a bit baggy around the leg, which means leaks.
Kushies ultra, not good containment, take forever to dry and leak within an hour of being put on.
Terry nappies, too much of a faff folding them and then holding them together whilst baby kicks them away during changing and find them difficult to nippa.

starlover · 13/09/2005 20:36

ooh i use terry squares over some of the other nappies in my pile!
i really like them, they're fab on a small baby because you can make them nice and slim between the legs

i used to fold them all up in the morning and then just use as i needed them... no hassle at all! no more than stuffing fuzzi bunz etc anyway

I do think terries are lovely on teenies, so fluffy and perfect for quick drying when you need so many nappies on the go.
I stopped using them when ds was about 7 months, because I was getting in a bad mood at changing time.
He just kicked my lovely fold to bits. WHEEEE! And legged it. So I would fold it again and kick etc... Grrr!
His favourite thing now is trying to help me with the dirty nappies in the loo and standing trying to flush the toilet.
Is this quite common, he is just ten months?

Maisie, he sounds VERY smart! And very helpful, hopefully he'll stay that way!

The boots all in ones were dreadful. Eurgh..

However I love fuzzibunz and minkis and I adore Kissaluv and Tots bots with me wraps.
I love fleece wraps for night.
