Hi,
i m wondering whether anyone had any luck with cloth nappies overnight.
I ve been trialing some, but no luck.

So, i d been keen for any tips ? or what worked for you...etc.

How about Peapod night boosters? or. Ecobubs wool night pocket? o
I d be very gratefull for any info on this topic.

Thanks so much!!
would so much love to stop using disposables all together but so far that s the only thing that works for my daughter.

Hi ya.

Don't use peapods at night with just the bamboo insert cause it's a slow absorber. YOu need to have a micro fibre in there as well to absorb the wee's straight away. The peapod nigth boosters are ok for day use but you might need something a bit more thirsty.
We used Peapods at first becasue that's all I thought was around but now I don't have any. But the bamboo insert is the best.

We now use Ecobubs wool pockets at night. With a bamboo trifold and 2 3 layer microfibre inserts.

We also use Ecobubs wool pocket with the ecobubs large and small insert. Find it an awesome nap and have never had any leaks and its usually on for 13hours.

Welcome to OHbaby! iceland

There are HEAPs of thread on this very subject - search results http://www.ohbaby.co.nz/Forum/search.asp?KW=night&SM=1&SI=TC&FM=17&OB=1&Submit=Start+Search - here

Personally I swear by fitted nappies (never had a leak from DesignerBums) with a woollen soaker or longies over the top.

I use a mix of fitteds and pockets- you just have to stuff them enough to take the load over night- I use an XL pocket so i can mega stuff it with a mix of hemp, microfibre and bamboo. When b was smaller i used old fashioned flats and a microfibre inserts and if i got leaks i would pop a knitted soaker or a paid of longies over the top and that fixed any leaks. DONT use peapods fullstop!

hi,
thanks for all the tips you sent.
I ve tried the recomended Ecobubs wool pockets for 2 nights... with bamboon trifold and small and large insert and it s just brilliant!!!!
both nights no leaks and it was 12 hours!!
yay, my daughter is had sometimes wetded through the disposable nappies at night, so great and much better. and the stripy ecobubs are so cute too!
Glad i can get her out of disposables:-)
and as for the day use, i m a "peapods" person, work great for us!!

thanks again!
M

Great to hear, and i'm another who have found peapods fine during the day, tho i'm not using them at the mo due to them being a Large and my DD is to small for them.
