    Unhappy Itti bittis leaking through :(

    DS1 has started leaking through his Itti bittis Not out the leg but through the cover EVERYTHING keeps getting wet He doesnt have them on for hours maybe an hour and they start leaking?

    Is it something I can fix or is it jsut cause they are about a year or so old? Its both the snap in and the AIO?

    Please help we love our itti bittis

    Boomba, Itti bittis just never worked for us in terms of absorbency. They just wouldn't last the distance and it got really really annoying, cos they were a good fit for him. They're an emergency nappy for us now.

    hav eyou tried giving them a strip wash at all hon?

    Maybe they need to have all the build up of washign over the last year stripped off so they can become absorbent again.

    Strip wash is (for those who dont know)

    wash in hot water and a dolip of washing up liquid. rinse nappies until the bubbles are gone and they should be like new again

    I agree with the strip wash and I found that DD ended up being a heavy wetter, and with a minibooster the wetting through stopped

    DS was outwetting IBs (mini-booster included) by about 20 months. I had LOVED them until then, but they just didn't last the distance past that age, his wees were too big
