Help with nappies for very long baby?

Hi all you nappy gurus,

I was wondering if someone could recommend a nappy for a 4 month old baby who is exceptionally long. Mum is struggling to fit nappies and wraps which are high enough in the rise to fit well.

She prefers velcro fitting wraps, although I am going to get her to try a M/L airflow wrap as they are pretty long, but any other thoughts would be much appreciated. She's actually bought a Tots Bots size 2 wrap as she's had to go up a size in most things but obviously it's far too big. She's getting a size 1 instead in the new style which are pretty long, so hopefully that will work, but although I love the new Tots wraps they're only in 3 sizes so aren't as flexible as others. They're longer than Rikkis though so Rikkis are not an option.

She finds the Swaddlebees pockets fit well, funnily enough, but he's a heavy wetter so they're not ideal for him and obviously no good for overnight.

Nappy wise she's going to try a Bambineo (Wambamboo) as the size 2 should fit well but I'm looking for a faster drying option as well. Perhaps a Mother-ease AIO without the fold down...

So any ideas for anything other than these would be very gratefully recieved!

Thank you,

Emma

Can I suggest a Little Kiwi, I just bought a size 1 (small) and it's virtually as long as a Tots size 2, it has a very surprising design that folds out to allow it to dry quickly (it's cotton tho they do a bamboo as well).

Or how about another WAHM like Clwt-Twt, Suki will do bespoke nappies if the rise is an issue.

Hmm, that's an idea. I was thinking of knitted pants to order but didn't think of Suki. I'll get in touch with her.

Cheers MWS.

Any other suggestions anyone?
