    I've only used the swim nappies from Kmart, which did the job, but you have to check with some pools as they won't let you in without a disposable (yes closed minded I know....but you just can't win with some).

    Shopping, I agree with the Ittibittis, they are my favourite and i have a skinny legged buddha bellied kid and also found Monkay Doodlez AIOs wo work really well. Lots of people don't like them but they worked fantastically for us.

    Nights I've only ever used BBHs fitted or Mandy macs. Not a fan of the MMs but they do have a new night nappie which i belive is excellent.

    Night nappy - if I can give some negative feedback - I haven't had much success with the BBH overnight. They were fine while DS was littler, but now that he is wearing the nappy 12 hours & having a big drink before bed, they just don't cut it!

    Ezz - are you talking about the hemp ones ? Cos I only use those ones for short naps - I find the bamboo ones much more absorbent, but also need the extra booster on the outside of the nappy to last DS the night. DD is fine with the two inserts in the nappy, she doesnt' usually need the extra booster.

    Not hemp - bamboo. I was using a bamboo fitted with both inserts & a booster outside, with a wool cover. DS still leaked through on a regular basis.

    Gotta tell ya babe...every baby is different so what works well for me might not for you

    how big is she in the rise....is she skinny? is she tall?

    Best swim nappy - god you can use a cover cause all its really used for it to contain the pooh if it happens.

    Best shop nappy? hmmm have no idea what you mean by that cause I tend to take my kids shopping in whatever is of their bum at the time.

    Best night nappy - I use Wild Childs, Sandmans, Mirabai's.

    If you have questions about sizing...contact the sellers...they will be more then happy to email you back with info

    Good luck on your quest
