I have always thought that when I had a baby I would definitely use biodegradable nappies. Ds is now 19 months and they have been totally amazing. He has never ever had nappy rash, he doesn't leak, even when he sleeps for 12+ hours. In fact I looked after a friends little girl last weekend who has to wear special liners in her pampers at night and then a nappy wrap over the top because she always leaks, and I put her in my ds's nappies both nights and no leaks!! Yes they are more expensive but I stock up when there is an offer at waitrose, or buy them from boots and use my points. Anyway just wanted to put that out there in case there are any new mums who are deciding what to use!!
Ps Any MN pro's out there, I cannot change my profile to say I have children, it just won't let me, what do I do??
