ORGANIC fleece liner?

I've just started using reusables(BG v3) with my DS of 9 weeks and want to use a fleece liner with it to ensure he stays as dry as possible, only I would prefer that this was organic. Can anyone recommend an organic fleece liner?

Organic polyester ? are you quite sure you aren't having a PFB moment

a few ideas here - maybe the silk ones?

You could get something like this organic cotton fleece jersey and cut it into liners yourself.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about these subjects:

greenlotus lol- honestly, probably (I have been exposed!) you know what I mean though, something that behaves like fleece but that is more natural/or an eco version of poly. as it is so close to babies skin (DS got a bit red the last couple of times he wore the BG)

The silk liners look lovely and soft they may be worth a try, but do they retain moisture when wet I wonder- have you used them?

Lionstar this definately looks like the answer, albeit a bit pricey, although I could probably get a fair few liners out of it; and cut some into wipes too come to think of it it suddenly looks quite cost effective!

Thanks guys

The thing about polyester is it doesn't absorb moisture - cotton fleece will be just the same as the nappy itself.

I used to use (for DS) a layer of: flushable liner (like say the earthlets ones), polyester fleece liner, then a cotton nappy. No particular nappy rash problems unless a poo went undetected.

Never went for silk - tbh I thought the "area" was so aggressively contaminated with what baby produced that the composition of the nappy was fairly irrelevant.
