I didn't have dd (now 5) in reusables until she was about 4mths as her motherease were just huge on her, but with this one(currently pg) want to start much earlier. I also never got dd settled in reusables at night, either boosted so much she wouldn't settle or they leaked, so want to crack that this time too.
I have got some little lambs size 1, mainly microfibre but a few cotton and bamboo too, for main use, but want some super absorbant ones for night time (when he/she learns to sleep for more than a couple of hours!) and car journeys, shopping trips etc. With dd I had a minki huggle and a wee notions mf that absorbed well, are there any others that people would recommend for absorbancy? Is it better to use fleece or wool wraps at night - do these work well with a gro bag?
And does anyone have any that they recommend that they want to sell me?
Thanks!

I used Bimbles successfully at night when mine was newborn, I would also recommend Tots stretchy bamboo nappy which is a onesize so would be economocal. I never got on with fleece at that age, think the pressure of them lying on their back the whole time might have squished the wetness out. Never tried wool that young. I would recommend motherease airflow or rikkis.
p.s we r not supposed to buy n sell on this topic, maybe try putting a wanted ad up using for sale board (link in purple on top heading)

I've been using the next size up with a couple of boosters at night and it's worked fine - mostly bambinex microfibre or bamboo ones.

If you have motherease I would try that, it doesn't matter that they are too big for the night (I gave my motherease away so don't have them any more, but they were ds1's favourite night nappy).

Interested in this thread?

Sold all my motherease ages ago, but dd never got on with them at night, they either leaked or I had to boost them so much she wouldn't settle in them. I will look into bambinex microfibre and other bamboo nappies, thanks.
