If I had a little girl I'd definitely get lilac & fuscia! They're gorgeous and different to the usual pastel girl colours available in MCNs.
I went for rockmelon & lime for Leo - even though I really wanted aqua & chocolate the bright colours really appeal to Leo right now

I am having the same problem at the moment- can't decide on which colour. Tossing on between going for a really girly colour (If i do I would go Lilac) or should I go for a unisex colour (aqua) so that I can use it on the next child (just planning ahead.....I am not pregnant). ------------- Mum to Ella (5) and Tom (2) |

| Most of our small MCN are unisex colours,..but the girly ones are soo cute so now almost all Isla's mediums are girly! |

Nope, I resisted buying them for the gremlins (altho the lime is scrummy!) I only bought one for baby. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

mmmmmm fuscia is a definate i think!
does anyone know what these are like overnight? was thinking, if i like it then i could get a rockmelon for jack so he doesn't get a girly complex
all my nappies are now girl colours and he stills wears one to bed at night. ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

I have no idea what they'd be like at night - I'm not convinced I'd be able to add enough absorbancy for Leo to wear 12hrs, although I haven't tried them with a booster. They definitely get more absorbant with each wash and if Jack's not a heavy wetter you could possibly get away with it overnight if it's been washed heaps and you've added an additional booster. A wool soaker over top could be extra protection too. I love my D'lish so much I even put the inserts in the dryer on low last night so that I could put it on Leo to wear to my mother's group this morning and show off!  I didn't dry them fully in the dryer, I just did one low cycle to take some of the bulk liquid out and then put them on the drying rack inside to finish drying overnight. I can't wait for my other D'lish to arrive as I ordered an extra insert with it!

They look too trim to be a good night nap... but maybe?
I just bought a yellow one for a friend. But I love the purple and fuschia and rockmelon! Yum. Turquoise was out of stock
I can't wait to fondle it... and then hand it to the person who actually has a babe in nappies!

we have fuscia too
I haven't been brave enough to try overnight either, they are so trim I just can't trust it. There is extra snaps for more boosters tho? My Jack has a purple nappy on atm, he chooses what one he wants to wear and keeps choosing the pink ones

| Also you might want to wait until you have one and try it for sizing on Jack because they are very small sizes. Caprece is in a large. |

OMG Rachel, that pic of Caprece is too cute!!! I just want to nibble on those gorgeous thighs of hers!!
Leo (19mths) is also in a large, on a middle setting, and he's 12.75kg. Vic xx |

Don't be sad, lilac is gorgeous!! I was the same, I only bought one first with the free shipping as I was so skeptical that they'd be any good. Now I love, love, love it!! Vic xx |

Crap. Free shipping?
Ah well. I have a horrible feeling the little Louie kid isn't going to fit the medium for long... ah well, atleast she'll know to get larges when she orders them!! |
