Soaking a bimbles qd in an hour?

Ds has worn easypeasy qd bimbles from birth but now at almost 8 weeks seems to be soaked through in as little as an hour (and may even be sooner but this is the earliest I have picked up on so far)... does this seem normal? I mean is he a heavy wetter or would this be normal now he is bigger? He is only 10lbs (at a guess) and they are supposed to last a good 4lbs more so he is hardly at the upper weight limit.

I don´t have any boosters to hand except a microfibre cloth so I have shoved that in the pocket bit where the fold out booster goes and will see if that helps.. any other suggestions for boosters?

I would guess he is a heavy wetter, has the microfibre boosting helped? Have you any bumbles? Have heard of people using bimbles to stuff them, therefore getting good use out of the bimble.

Try getting a Bumble and using the Bimble as the inner part and then the Bumble over that.

Sounds quite normal to me my ds is a heavey wetter and went into size 2 nappies at about that mostly for absorbancy. cloth should have helped.

Thanks, yeah the cloth did help, got 2 hours out of it this time. Will stock up on more cloths just to get as much out of them as I can. Already decided to use Bambineo´s size 2s and in fact already use them (and they are much more absorbant), a bit disappointed if he´ll have almost got max use out of them already but I did pick them up second hand so not a huge outlay lost.
