We just went for it, which I know is an approach that lots of people would recommend against. Basically I was completely bewildered by choice. The brand I'd been recommended by friends was deemed unsuitable for my, predicted to be, long baby by the Nappy Lady. I'd started to dream about nappies-one particularly horrid one was where they all turned into murdered kittens! A colleague of mine sympathised and said she'd got a Lollipop kit which had been great. I'd had a similar recommendation for Little Lambs. In the end, we went to the Baby Show, liked the Lollipop nappies the best of the brands on offer, and went for it. No regrets.
