Ok so I love our dlish's but recently Jacks has been leaking from the crotch, I can't figure out whats going on with it as we have never had this problem before and we have been using them for a while. I use soap nuts on a hot wash so I don't think its got anything to do with the washing. Any ideas anyone?
I don't want to have to stop using them as they are by far my most favourite nappy. |

Are the boosters completely saturated when they leak? Jack could be out wee'ing them.
You could try boosting them a little by putting a mf cloth or something folded in the middle of the trifold booster?? Hope you sort out the problem as the d'lish is my fave nappy too

Perhaps you could try stripping them just in case. -------------

| hes in large, he could well be out weeing them, they just haven't been lasting very long. I might try boosting them and see if that helps. Thanks |

It could be that he's holding onto his wee longer now so when he does it's a mini Niagra Falls  I hope you can boost them a little (the mini boosters are quite cheap, or you could try a cheap mf cleaning cloth).

| Rach we have just encountered the same thing. They are now totally saturated from front to back in less than 2 hours!!! They used to last us 4! I havent noticed a problem with any of Tom's other nappies. |

| Well randomly Jack did wees on the potty today (he used to be so good and then he just gave up) so maybe he has been holding it in longer. |

| Hrmmm... I wonder if it is because of the speed of absorbing of the bamboo? I don't know how it compares to hemp but it might be worth boosting with microfibre if you have some. |
