Which are the least smelly disposables?

Well, I am faced with a long (10 hours) car journey and I won't have access to a washing machine at the other end for a day or so and so have come to the conclusion that I need to use disposables (sob....) or buy another 12 bamboo nappies (which I really don't want to do). So, which are the least smelly disposables? Can you help me? TIA.

I stick a motherease wrap over the sposi if I have to use them - then i find it doesn't smell

I found Boots own to be the least smelly, used resusables and hate the smell!

MHC - Yep, it's the chemical smell that bothers me. The other smells, well, there ain't anything we can do about those! I resorted to pampers in an emergency a couple of weeks ago (well, I forgot the changing bag and had to scrounge) and the smell when they go wet made me boak.

unmadam - thanks for the tip about the wrap.

milf - would love to go to Boots but there aren't any where I live (Lux). And no M&S food hall either... sob.

Again, Moltex. They are lovely. Just SO expensive

Why not get a dozen or so terries? I would use disps on a long trip but if you really don't want to terries or prefolds are a cheap option.

JoyS - daft question. What is the difference between terries and prefolds?

Thanks for the tip pistachio.

A second vote for nature baby nappies here. Use them for holidays, etc and fine them great. Also they are biodegradable so another plus point there

Prefolds are flat cotton twill with extra layers in the middle (Cotton Bottoms), you can fold them into thirds and place them in a wrap or fold them so they kind of look like a fitted and fasten with a nippa or pins and put a wrap on them.

A dozen of either would see you through the trip and wouldn't cost a fortune.

Hope that helps!
