As we have figured that we probably won't be able to have cloth nappies right from the get go as we a. can't afford straight off and b. don't have the facilities to dry etc. We are thinking that we will start baby off in disposables and then move on to cloth I was thinking at 3mths.
Cool, I did that!, or more, I waited till 5 months. Took me a while to be converted.
What I want to know is for the sized nappies what age approxiametly (I know this depends on the size of baby and growth rate etc) does the baby move into the next size up?
I gave up on this and went for OSFM
How many nappies do find you need for each size (note I said need not want ladies
)?
see above
A few of you have already said that pocket nappies dry quicker then the rest, how do you find removing the inserts from the inside when they are soiled
?
I've been trialling a few in the last few weeks, I just hold 'em in the loo and flush. They come up clean after a rinse :)
In your experience do you find one size fits all or the fitted ones are best?
Fitted probably fit better, but I haven't had any trouble with the OSFA's I've tried.
How long do you find the microfleece and hemp liners take to dry? I have a microfibre hair towel random input here I know but find that it dries quite quickly especially if its hung flat as opposed to over a hook do you think it would be the same for the liners?
Mine dry pretty quickly over a clothes horse, and even speedier in the drier.
What does everyone think of the prefold in a cover? Is this an easy system and do they dry and wash easy?
I really like the look and ease of use of the nap-naps one size fits all and was wondering if from experience anyone has opinions on them. I don't mind the fact that you have to get the outers either.
Too much for me to comprehend, worth a shot though!
I am so confused and as said I want to try cloth nappies but don't know what to do as we have a relatively small house at the moment and baby will be here in the middle of winter so we are thinking that putting baby into cloth when they are a little bit older might be easier, it will also help get us into a routine and for me to be able to learn to cope with a new born first. For this reason I was thinking of going with the fitted nappies rather then a one size fits all.
Fair point, but remember OSFA means the ones you use now will fit a toddler too! (to a certain extent)
Any suggestions help would be appreciated!! Also any help with washing would be appreciated. I tend not to use a hot wash majority of the time but have noticed that things like AIO and pocket nappies say you need a hot wash to ensure proper function of nappy.
My yoyo says on the label cold or warm wash :)
CONFUSED
I have been reading the other threads trying to make sense of it all and am thinking of visiting the snazzipants store. I told DP he needed to help cos I'm confused and in all fairness he will be doing the changing as well and just got the whats so confusing thing?
