Fleece and liners together?

20 replies

Now dd is starting real food the poo is reaching a whole new level of yukiness. A friend recommended using disposible liners. What order do things go in? I'm presuming its wrap, nappy, fleece then liner. Do I still need fleece if I'm using a liner or does the liner wick the wee away from the skin?

you don't need a fleece liner and a paper liner together. If you can handle rinsing the fleece liners then stick to them, otherwise just use the paper ones.
Make sure the ends and sides hang over the edge of the nappy when you put the nappy on, then make sure it all tucks inside the wrap- this stops the paper from bunching up inside the nappy.

If it helps - when your DD is on solids lots (3 full meals a day kind of thing) the poo gets to this great stage where it just sort of falls off the liner, so fleece is lovely again.

The in between superglue stage is horrible though

Those paper liners transformed nappy changes for me. Mind you, I have to compost them rather than flush them so my little compost collecter bin is rather different than it used to be. I have to say I was at the point of wanting to give up reusables because it was so disgusting.

ooh, i have a question...am i not supposed to be using a paper liner on top of my fleece liner?
dd 13 weeks old and i have always used both. bit of a fag - can i just use the fleece, which i love using?

Flamesparkler · 01/11/2006 10:29

pmsl - she'd happily eat 3 full meals! You just have to give into the floam/coal/sand desires

Flamesparkler · 01/11/2006 10:30

Yup, just one type of liner or the other is needed, not both.

IdrisTheDragon · 01/11/2006 10:32

DD is 13 months and despite eating much food, we still haven't reached the falling off the fleece type of poo yet.

I lay the nappy out like this: wrap, nappy, booster, sometimes a fleece too, and paper liner. I always use a paper liner and then just flush it and the poo down the loo.

Flamesparkler · 01/11/2006 10:37

Maybe Flameboy just has special poo??

IdrisTheDragon · 01/11/2006 10:38

Seem to remember DS being like that too, although he was a disposable baby (I have now seen the light) and so didn't get quite so close to it then .

whith breat fed runny poo i didn;t find a paper liner much use, but maybe I didn't find teh right one.
I 'm using bambino mio bio degradable ( it says on packet) liners now and they are working fine with solid pooh. If its a flease lined bumble I use a mio liner, if its a ME I use a flease liner... makes sense in my world. That way i have a chance of changing teh liner when he does a pooh imediatly hes in a clean dry nappy, which he does sometimes 2 or 3 times a day .
Thing to remember with flease liners- don;t use them in flease lined nappies. two layers of flease cancel each other out and won't wick moisture away.

ScotGirl · 01/11/2006 22:04

I use a fleece liner all the time - even in my bumbles and bimbles. Habit really and because ds always seems to poo just after I have changed him and I find it easier to flick the poo off the liner rather than a whole nappy.

UniSarah - it never even occurred to me not to!

WriggleJiggle · 02/11/2006 01:13

I'm glad I asked ... I've been trying to use both . Great advice Littlekiwibaby about tucking the sides inside the wrap, my liners have been ending up as scrunched up little balls.

Just on the off chance - dd has suddenly started getting nappy rash since I've started using liners. Is this coincidence or could it me the liners?

could it be the liners?

i always use a fleece liner, for wicking moisture away, with a paper liner on top for ease of poo disposal. I

UniSarah · 03/11/2006 19:22

prehaps I should qualify what I said about 2 fleases together...AFAIK flease wraps work by useing two layers to cancel each other out. so.. 2 flease layers in the liner shouldn't wick as well as one. 1 paper and 1 flease seem to work fine. YMMV

Does anyonme use paper liners in disposables? to safe useing so many nappies when l/o poohs in otherwise dry one

LRWG · 05/01/2007 08:29

So, just to rehash this one.... am I okay to use a flushable paper liner ontop of the fleece until DD develops super-three-meals-a-day-poo?

eidsvold · 05/01/2007 11:26

i have only used the fleece liners with nothing on top.

If you have trouble cleaning them

something like this might help

eidsvold · 05/01/2007 11:27

probably cause you can't get flushable liners here in Aus - or probably can but it would be online and some big drama.

UniSarah · 05/01/2007 19:26

My experiments surgest that paper liner and flese liner work Ok together.
