Liner confusion

Hello, I'm new to washables. Tried them for a day and failed but now on second attempt since last thurs and loving them! I went to a nappucino thing and bought some fleece liners when pregnant and now can't remember why! LO is 4 months, bf so uber runny poo and using paper liners which catch most but not all. I think fleece was supposed to keep lo drier but does that mean I use either fleece or paper? Is there any point to using both? TBH don't fancy picking out a thin bit of fleece from a pool of poo - is it worth the hassle?

Thanks ladies, knew washables was a good idea but it's a bit confusing at first...

I think it's just a matter of preference really. I use fleece but ones I hacked out of a fleece blanket so I could make them large. I used paper liners for the weird transition during weaning when poo was runny and sticky. I agree, I wouldn't have wanted to use fleece at this time. But once food was established it's really easy to shake solids down the loo. Also once DS got active the paper liner was ending up a crumpled mess so a large fleece liner was much better.

I didn't bother with liners when DS was ebf, but I have some spectacular stains on nappies to remind me of this Grin

Cheers ChutesTooNarrow. I'm a bit of a white freak but like most things I suspect that belongs to my pre-baby past!!
