yes I understand why the return goes through her, my main point was that lollipop were uninterested in my many complaints about the "advisor" and even though they are technically a separate company, they are letting her use their good name so I would have though they would have cared about the many (more than I've posted here) reasons to be unhappy with her "demonstration"
re the one lifes, no I am using them correctly and the inserts are in, the problem is that they are small fitting (and I know this because since having problems I have trawled reviews and found that they are generally quite small fitting and lots of babies grow out of them way before potty time. My 10mo baby is on the 75 percentile for weight despite not being tall so he is wide (like the rest of his viking family . The one lifes are very snug on him so to fit them comfortable on him there would be a sharp popper against his skin on the flap IYKWIM. If all poppers on the flap are safely poppered onto the skin it is uncomfortably tight on him. Either way I would hurt him by using them. Plus the wraps left scratches around his leg (not from the velcro) that took a couple of days to heal. The lollipop advisor's answer to this was that they were fine on her baby till potty (her baby was small - we briefly chatted about how he was premature but all the family are small anyway so he was never gonna be huge, etc etc). Lollipop HQ suggested shrinkage but judging by the reviews, they are just the wrong nappy to sell someone starting on cloth with a chunky hunk of a 9mo.
The reason I opted for the one lifes in the first place was because I wanted a quick drying option. They took longer to dry than any other nappy I've bought since
And they leaked terribly. I did wash them several times, checked that nothing was poking out etc (people on this thread were great at helping me trouble shoot) I just really think that I was sold the entirely wrong nappy for me and my baby. I thought that I would call it a day on cloth at that, but lurking around on here and on some of your websites lured me back in
I think they would be fab on a different, maybe younger and smaller baby, and perhaps are better for girls. I dont think boys really need all round absorbancy - just localised.
Anyway I am now beyond trying to trouble shoot with the one-lifes. I'm done with them and enjoying the new nappies I've bought with the refund from the pop n gros I wanna draw a line under my first go with cloth, sell the one-lifes, and buy/make more cute fluff
