Bumgenius - Extra Boosters

[LKbabyH]

Hi all,
I'm considering getting some boosters for my BGV4s however am not sure which to get. From reading most threads, it seems that Little Lambs bamboo, Easy Peasy Hemp and Ptits Dessous are good.

I've taken the plunge and bought a few PDs for night use but they are very expensive so cannot afford to buy one for each of my nappies. :(

The Easy Peasy look good but are double the price each of the Little Lamb bamboo price...with LLs do you use 1 or 2? If 2 perhaps I am better off just getting EP and using 1 ?

I have about 16 BGV4s and about 4 Flip outers with staydry inserts.
How many boosters do I need to buy if I have already bought 7 PDs?
Any advice would be really appreciated.

Didn't want to leave you unanswered but not sure I'll be of any help!

I use BG V3 and V4 and with both my 10mo and my 25mo I use the biggest of the inserts that came with the nappy and then add an extra insert, I don't use the small, newborn insert that came with them anymore.

I only use microfibre inserts because they dry quickly, I struggle to get bamboo and hemp dry. I use the Greenacre Designs microfibe ones www.babykind.co.uk/pocketnappyinserts.htm#gad and a friend who has more drying space than I do swears by Blueberry Combo inserts www.babykind.co.uk/pocketnappyinserts.htm#blueberrycombiinserts.

I have an extra insert for every nappy but I don't use washables overnight so never need to boost enough for overnight, maybe then I'd need extra.

I have used LL bamboo size 2 boosters with BGv3s - they are a good fit. I use the large MF on top and then the bamboo underneath. However I have never found that BG are absorbant enough for night time use. I use two parters for DD2 at night and I use other pockets that I can stuff loads and loads of layers into for DD1, BG can't accommodate enough !
The LL boosters are very reasonable and fit well with BG so I would get a pack of ten and see how you get on with them.
You might get on better with the Flips at night rather than the v4s? You could try two stay drys inserts together (and maybe a bamboo as well) or you could try a stay dry and an organic cotton insert together?

I have BG v3. For daytime, I use the big folding one and for night time, I use the big one, 2 newborn and 2 Little Lamb bamboo (DS is an heavy wetter). I have 25 nappies and 15 LL insert as they take longer to dry than microfibre.
