I GOT MINE!! Yum.. the sewn ins are so nice too. Im glad i got a large in them though as i think they are smaller than the dlish snap in. I think the trial pack is a really good deal.

hmmm was going to get a trial pack too, but if they are smaller than the snap in ones, i don't think i'll bother.....charli is in a large and fits the tightest snaps, but only just!

Yeah Kylah fits a medium snap in perfect. But the large sewn in fits her really good too!

That's odd about the difference in size between the snap in and sew-in. Although I found a difference between the Bitti Boo and the snap in D'lish too. Because it had built-in layers as well it was just too much on Leo's chubbler frame.

Well I've managed to win myself a free sewn-in d'lish from TNN, by waking up early this morning and being one of the first 5 in with a pm. Sooo can't wait for it to get here!

The sizes of the 2 naps are much the same. I have them here, measured them up against each other and they are much of a muchness.

ok I love the look of these nappies but was wondering snap in or sewn in? Which would you recommend and why? Also has anyone had any big leaks or blowouts? With the snap ins can you get away with just replacing pad at nappy change rather than whole nappy?

I have the trial pack and still haven't quite decided which I find better... He has the sewn in on now and has done for the last 2 hours... (I am running trials today seeing how long different nappies last...Foxybots just did 4 hours!)
I love both of them tho!! They are trim, look nice and confy and he can get around easily still...

Melloyello I like the sewn-in because they're easier to sort out - love having a few naps that are just on, off, one thing to hang up etc. And I like the snap-in because they're better value.
You *can* change just the insert if it's only weed in, but I would at least air the outer (so wear it, wear another nap while outer is on the line/rack/water cubboard, then wear it again with new inner) or, you can just biff it in the wash - the inner dries twice as slowly as the outer I find, so two would be perfect, and that way they're clean every time.

I have a couple of the snap in and love them. I brought an extra inner and I have been able to reuse the cover a couple of times...and I find the inners can take a while to dry in winter, so it's nice to have an extra.

I have 2 snap-in's with an extra insert and I love them. When they're just wet and I'm in a hurry I can change the inserts and reuse the outer - the outer always stays dry and while it might be slightly wee-smelling (if you stick your nose up close and have a good sniff) it's never an issue to use once more. I'd only ever use the same outer twice but it makes the nappies more economical and is easier in the winter when the inserts take longer to dry. Leo has poo'd in his HEAPS (he obviously finds them comfortable lol) and I've never had a leak, dispite his poo always being soft (never a solid log). After a few washes they're really absorbent and they're a great addition to our nappy basket

If Leo was younger I would - but he's 2 in August and using the potty now so I just can't justify buying more nappies. Boo hoo

I love these nappies I have a large snap-in for DS and it fits him really well at 16kg! and lasts about 3 hours with no extra boosting. I can't wait till we stock these!

Hey Tweedle - which snaps are you on to fit at 16kg?? Luke is 10.7kg and is on the smallest without snapping over in the large. I am actually a little reluctant to buy more if they aren't going to fit for too much longer...

Leo is on the same snap setting as Dylan, at 13-14kg (see mother's instinct website gallery for Leo in his rockmelon).

Isaac is on that setting too .... I think he must be between 14-15kg. He is the same age as Dylan.
I do believe Sue is coming out with an XL sized one at some point so watch the space for that.
I think alot of kiddies slim down alot once they hit 2 anyway, but it is more the rise then hat becomes the problem.

I was naughty and made Bizzy decide whether I bought any or not coz I knew I really didn't *need* them, but if she bought some I could justify it for splitting postage
So now the gremlins are getting a large sewn-in in fuschia each and baby is getting a med yellow. That is assuming she ever decides to come out and join the rest of the world, she is way too happy in there atm.
