    want to start to buy MCN help needed

    I have been on the Itti site and seen they have a pretty good starter pack deal ( well I think it is ) but whats better

    Bitti tutto that grow with baby ( so in the end cheaper for me) or the bitti d'lish thats 6.5 to 12 kg which if PK is anything like my girls ( which so far he is ) he will still be in them by the time he is toilet training so will be in them for ages... and whats better AIO or SIO... so as they are cheaper than Bitti tutto they would work out cheaper for me ( I am on the spp so need them to be CHEAP as I can get them ) if pk stays on the same track as he is now ( 20 % for weight ) he is only 5.6kgs at 14weeks...

    If you get the SIO do you need to buy extra snap in bits or do the nappies come with enough?


    Or if anyone knows of cheaper brands that they love please let me know

    i started out buying them off a buy sell mcn facebook page, if your ok with trialing them seccondhand, just to see what brands work best for us.
    with the ittis, they are one of my fave brand, i prefer the sio on my 1yo, but i prefer the fit of the aio on my 2 week old, the tuttos are awsome, fit them both perfect! the sio come with 2 inserts the tri fold and hour glass, you can also get a mini booster (fits all ittis), i got one, but have not needed to use it, with the tutos i remove the larger insert as its to bulky for dd2's tiny bum, but leave them all in for dd1.

    it is more personal prefrence. when i save more $$ i am getting more new ones, but in the begining found the seccondhand buy sell page a great starting point.

    The Snap in Ittis come with 2 snap in things (one trifold and one single that both go in together). I prefer Snap in cos they are easier to dry.

    I find the Ittis to be a bit smaller than other brands, my LO is on the small side and i still wonder if they will fit right up to toilet training. The BBH tend to be a bit bigger- e.g. My DD fit in small BBH for a lot longer than she was in small Ittis, and likewise she fit into the medium ittis a lot learlier than when she could wear the medium BBHs

    THe SIOs come with everything that you need unless you have a super heavy wetter and then you need a booster. I don't find the AIOs absorbent enough. Tuttos are fantastic though.
    My very tiny 2yo is in larges though (he's only 11kgs) due to a low low rise and very trim.

    Will send you a PM though.
