I've just got some totsbots and I don't know yet if they are better than the bumble BUT the bumble is most definately cuter....

It's so so so lovely...

Does anyone know where I can get some really cute wraps? I've seen a few okay ones, but it's just such a shame to hide this nappy...

I know what you mean about hiding nappies, I wish you could buy transparent wraps!

Exactly...

There are one or two cute wraps (totsbots blue and pink spotty one springs to mind) but they are few and far between

If you quite like fleece/PUL wraps, you could get some designed and made for you-pitter patter/minki springs to mind?

It's not a bad idea

although to be honest lots of the fleeces they use I'm no so keen on.

Just tried to search for transparent PUL. Was going to make my million by making the said wraps!
Why don't you like the fleece? Pitterpatter made me a lovely wrap, thick fleece and PUL. The other things that spring to mind are some WAHM like the wool ones??

Oh I don't mind fleece just most of the patterned ones I just don't feel are as cute as the nappies underneath!

No, I can understand that. DD will hopefully be toddling this summer and I can't wait for her to go wrap-less and have a lovely fluffy bum.
The tots spotty wraps are very nice, have one in each colour!

It's great you can put dd's in blue, think everyone would look at me odd if i put ds in pink...

Still tempted to get one in wishful thinking of a girl next!

OP posts:
pootlepod · 27/01/2005 20:24

But at least you would get them looking at the nappy LOL!

Bear Behinds do cool wraps for boys.

Ooh I'm hoping to get the polka one - good advice! The red is just too - red - for me if that makes any sense

Hi,
I just wanted to add to the cute covered nappy discussion. I don't have that problem personally, as I use prefolds and the covers are much cuter than the nappies. However, poor old bumbums (ds) has got a bit of nappy rash and I've put him into a woollen wrap (as mentioned by Pootlepod). I bought it from ebay, and it's absolutely gorgeous. It seems pretty waterproof and has a drawstring waist with ribbed legs - I think it's a homemade one.
There are loads of knitting instructions on the Internet for making them, if you knit.

i'd love to try wool wrpas, but my kids are allergic to lanolin
