I think thats the first bit of fluffy mail I got too... oh no hang on - my first was from Green Kids - the bucket one must of been the second.. (of MANY...lol)
I bought a peapod as part of my display stock, for when people ask what they are like, so when I tried it, this is what i found: The snaps are only on the very ends of the tabs, so if your bub is on the smallest setting you will get something called wing droop, where the ends of the top of the nappy pull down and end up coming out of the leg holes, thus providing massive leaks.
Many babies fit different types of nappies. Gigi's DD suits mainly narrow crotch nappies (see Gigi, I pay attention ) Whereas my DD's only suit wider crotch nappies. I have more trouble with side snappers, but Gigi has trouble with front snappers. Try lots of different types, and if you arent against using second hand nappies go to buyforbaby dot com dot au.
Some BellyBelly market place members do discounts that work out cheaper than the packs on their parent sites. Keep an eye on the BB classifieds too.
When we first started, I did buy lots of different nappies, I have some Mommy's Touch, lots of Cushie Tushies, some Bum Genius, a BabyBeeHinds Hemp, a BubbleJ, a BabyBeeHinds Magicall, a Baby Kanga's; which all work well for us. I also have some SwaddleBees, which I am passing on to Gigi as they dont work for us.
I stocked up on what worked best for us, and could be adapted for night use with an extra booster and a wool soaker.
