    ughh its so expensive setting all this up! ive already spent over $400 i know its worth it in the end but wow the outlay is getting a bit over my head! will check out the fleece covers as i dont think i have enough time to add more into the washing process.. will i get away with PUL for around 2 weeks till next pay or do u think im better off getting some fleece now?

    I only have 2, for night use. You could just start with 2 & switch every night.
    You can use the PUL & see how it goes. He might be fine til you can get fleece

    i use pUL all the time except for my maz covers which are fleece..
    havent ahd any issue, yes its not as breathable, but its always codl here so we dont get the heat issue.

    try them out see how you go.

    i avoid wool as i know ill stuff them up as i do with hubys wool socks

    i use the BBH pul covers at night as they are all I currently have. I have not had any issues with DD overnight and she is snuggled up nice and warm with me under a doona at night. That said i am keen to get some longies and wool covers when funds permit. I find the bamboo next to her skin, even when really wet, has been good for her skin. Surprised me. Because of that I want to get more fitteds for day use as well.

    I personally wouldn't use PUL at night. Same reason as Clover, just not breathable enough.

    I can lend you some woolies if you like to see you through until you can get some of your own. I'm not using cloth anymore at night so don't need nappies or covers - so have a lot to spare IYKWIM

    Meh - there's not much you can do to stuff them up. Don't use barrier creams, don't hang them so their elastic stretches, don't soak and don't use fabric softener. That's pretty much all the rules.. LOL

    Offer is there anyhoo
