I'm using cotton terries and a few shaped cottons (easy peasy) with mothereasy and bambinex wraps. 4 weeks old baby, poo always touches edges of wraps and sometimes just explodes onto clothes, wee also leaks in leg area/side top. He is 11lbs but the terries are just hughmongously bulky, muslins are not enough and the shaped ones don't contain explosions. What am I doing wrong????

Terries are bulky but will become less so. The best fold for early months imo, is the poo catcher which you will find on thenappylady.co.uk

Thanks drseuss I'll try that one now!

Can I ask about liners? I got the juniorjoy, which I have now seen are not the best, which ones do you use and should I use them whole or can I cut them? if so, in how many pieces?
