Why aren't my inserts soft anymore?

[Heaven]

I just got a heap of new nappies yesterday. They're all washed and drying now. But I noticed with the new ones the bamboo inserts are all soft and fluffy!! And the one's I've had for a couple of weeks aren't soft anymore Is this normal, are they meant to go like that? Wish they would stay soft!!

I had this happen too. I just put the inserts in the dryer to soften them up a bit. I find that I need to do this every now and then

yep, sadly the fluff settles the more they are washed , shame isn't it? I find even the microfibre inserts get a bit hard after time too.
My BBH are almost smooth, that's how much they have settled.

ive found i need to scrunch and twist and crush them after drying and thne they come good

[Heaven]

Oh so it's normal. How sad But doesn't mean they're any less absorbent?

[Visitor8]

nope not less absorbant at all. Just chuck them throught the drier

[Heaven]

Bum, I don't have a drier!

Scrunch them up as you take them off the line. That can help. Or come visit me and chuck them in my dryer
