Those who were baffled about Bumbles/Bimbles - I have the answer!!

[FlameBatfink]

Absorbency on both is the same - same layers of terry. The difference is that if you check a bumble you will see it is stitched and then turned - this gives a good snug fit around the legs but the turning does add to any bulkiness of the nappy. Bimbles have the stitching on the outside so are not 'turned', therefore slightly trimmer - also they are only available as popper fastening.

Straight from the lovely lady at easypeasy

i said one was trimmer than t'other, didnt i??

nobody appreciates my genius

Aren't they for different stages as well. THought one size 1 and the other was size 2- or am I worng?

fraid so.

irrc, one is a one size B-P...
and the other is sized.

therefore a size 2 should be roughly same as the one size. only it isnt exactly the same for reasons stated below.

summink like that.

i had my ds is his size 2 bimble last night with an extra booster and a night booster and he was nice and dry this am all safe in the motherease wrap - my question is - ok the nappy was wet and the inserts one was sodden the other was 2/3 rds sodden - with wool cover will he still be dry or is a sodden nappy not workable (i am sceptical about this wool melarky). My couche cover should be here this week with stanctitator (cant spell em) wraps

flame also - has your prize draw finished yet? im feeling luuuuckyyyy today!

He should still be dry with a wool on The stacinator will be better for night than the couche though.

6 tickets left for the draw....

should i buy another??? - NO i should have some self control!!!

ooh i was gonna get one of those but i didnt finish the transaction as i still dont know what other bits to buy to complete my set... is i paypal on your site? seems daft to do a cc payment for such a little sum

Twice the chance of winning....

Yup, paypal

aha!

cant you buy six the excitement is killing me!

Turns out there were 7 left... so 4 to go

ah rats.

thought 3 was excessive

if i buy the other 4 i may was well buy the prize!

lol - just nudge everyone else to buy one

now are you done?

i would but... you and zone are the only two cloth nappy people i know

all this newfound cloth nappy mania makes me think about namechanging back to my original nappiesgalore (except one is now in pants and another is largely between the nappies and pants (hates pants for some reason))
