Which wraps with Little Lambs size 2?

8 replies

We have just moved up to size 2 in Little Lambs and only have 3 wraps. I'd like to try out some others as I found the size 1 wraps were a bit leaky.

Anyone got any recommendations for other wraps to try? Ds is quite skinny.

TIA

I have a heavy wetter and have not had a leak yet with 2 wraps - bum genius FLIP and tots bots (orange with white starts to be precise), I only use a 2 part system at night so both the above are doing 12 hours+

I have found Motherease Rikki to be very reliable. They do Airflow too which have popper fastenings but I think you can get a better fit with velcro (Rikki) IMO.

Thanks guys, have ordered one of each to try.

Motherease Riki or Poppers - you can't go wrong with Motherease!

Gosh Motherease, totsbots and Flips have been bomb proof with my DS.

I used to use pocket nappies all the time for day time use with DD1 and disposables for night time but I've been experimenting more a lot with DD2 as she seems to not tolerate disposables at all and there are more and more new things on the market. She is also a heavy wetter and still feeds a lot at night so I need something very reliable for night.
When I first saw flips I was very unsure about them but now I love them. I think they are the trimmest nappies in my stash but they have been designed to use along with their inserts (stay dry, cotton organic or disposable) they also work fine with some old cotton prefolds that I have when folded into a pad shape. I use them for day time use.
I had some Little lamb size 1s but now have some Totsbots size 2s (bamboo) for night time. As far as I am aware the TB and LL are very, very similar. I only use these at night time, boosted with another bamboo booster and a fleece liner so they are quite big and IMO they need a big wrap to go over them hence me liking the Motherease (I'm using a large Rikki) I have some Weehuggers (like the flip but come in 2 sizes rather than BTP) and I have size 2 they just fit over a boosted TB size 2 on my very chunky 10m DD. Having seen this thread I decided to experiment and the flip on the largest setting doesn't quite cover the entire nappy so IMO no use for this type of fitted nappy.
Having seen it mentioned on the nappy section here I have tried two stay dry inserts in a flip overnight when we were on holiday. We had to go to the airport at 5am so it didn't get a full night's testing but it worked from 7pm til 5am so in a long winded way I'm agreeing that Flips are good wraps but not great for over fitted nappies more for pad style inserts - unless your baby is still quite small. (maybe)
I have 2 preloved Totsbots wraps that are okay. I've had a couple of leaks so I don't love them like I do my Motherease. I am tempted to try their new ones though as I do love the cherrylicious design Smile

Are the new cherrylicious, cosmic etc the same design as the Orange, green etc spots/stars? We have chunky 10mo dc2 and large rikki wraps left over from skinny dc1. The velcro is buggered & they are a bit small. I came to this thread wondering whether to get xl rikkis for him or tots bots size 2. We have a couple of the new style tots wraps (spots/stars without gussets), they are larger than the rikki. Any advice for me? The actual nappies are a bit of a stretch & I don't see them lasting to potty training like they did for dd. Hoping he will slim down now he's on the move
