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?

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.
