    Question Please help me decide which brands??

    We have been using terry flats which I think are fine but DH can't fold them properly and refuses to change nappies now. So he has given me the green light to get enough MCN for full time .

    HOWEVER which brand?? There are sooo many! Can you please tell me which ones you love and why?

    I'm thinking an AIO as they would be easier for DH

    Hmmm I have some AIO's - the ones I have are:-

    wildchild
    bumgenius! (by far my fav)
    monkey doodlez
    umm
    itti bittis are an AI2.. got heaps of them..

    Don't forget they take longer to dry so you would need more of them than say, if you went for pockets.

    And once pockets are stuffed - they are just like an AIO

    I've got both of them - the one size pockets I use for DS for day care - and the sized ones I use for Miss M for daycare.

    I was am also intersted in which brands are preferred buy mums.

    I have 6 bbh, bamboo and tired to order more but they are sold out.

    I looked up bumGenius and can't seem to figure out how to order them off the website. Do i have to order them somewhere else?

    Also does anyone use the Pea Pods?

    And lastly in the itti bitti range which is preferred, bitti boo or bitti delish? AIO are sold out also.

    TIA ladies

    I have mainly got Itti Bitti's and Baby Beehinds and I love them both.

    Itti's are fantastic - great under clothes - nice trim fit and so far have never had any leaks. They come in two versions - (I don't know how to explain this well) a sewn in - which is basically your nappy with a booster sewn into (very easy and husband proof) or a snap in where you 'snap in' the boosters. They are good as the drying time seems to be cut down rather than a 'standard' AIO where the boosters are inside the nappy. The snap in version you can buy extra boosters as the shell of the nappy dries super quick so you can use it rather than waiting for your boosters to dry.

    I love my Baby Beehinds but some people can find them quite bulky under clothes. You can still get the old version which is a standard AIO, and now there is the new version which comes with a pocket to put boosters in (you get a booster with the nappy) so you can adjust it depending on how heavy your bubba wets. I find them fantastic for DS's daytime sleeps.

    My only other AIO that I have is Mini Lala but it takes ages to dry although it is a gorgeous looking nappy.

    Welcome to the addictive world of MCN

    I like Sunshine Tots - they're a OSFA and kind of a cross between an AIO & a pocket. It's all one piece but the insert is only sewn in at the top so you can pull it out for faster drying.

    I also like Haute one size pockets - they're probably on the smaller side of things for a one size but that means they look a bit trimmer, they're really fast drying and nice and soft. I just stuff them as I take them off the washing line so they're ready to go whenever we need them.
