Salsa, i can give you an opinion and observation about the Disana wool pullup soakers, but not the nappies.

We have had a Disana woollen pullup soaker for about six months, use it nightly.

I would say it's not bulky for a night cover, but is bulky for a day cover, as i wouldn't want to be putting clothes over it. But on occasion, we have used it as a day cover (at home), when it's summer and we're not putting clothes over the top of the cover.

The design is extremely clever. It's a double layer of finely knitted fabric (organic Australian merino wool, made in Germany). The fabric is concertina-ed, the pleats expand as your child grows. So the weight range of the item is even bigger than advertised i think.

i looked at photos of babies wearing these covers on the Green Mountain Diaper site (US nappy website). These photos showed me you can upsize easily. So even when my bub was technically at the small end of the MEDIUM range for a Disana cover, i bought a XL size - and because of the clever concertina pleating, it's fine on her. The pleats are close together now, but i know as i she gets bigger, the pleats will expand.

there is no elastic on the waist or leg cuffs, but this cover, that SOUNDS like it should be so big on my child, is fitting fine. So you certainly don't need to buy EACH size in the Disana. I think if you started with Disana covers, you could easily buy two or three sizes to last from birth to TT-ing (instead of the five available).

The rise is high, wonderful plus for a night cover.

Very happy with these as a night cover. Coverage is great, waterproofness is great. Easy to handwash, good drying time too.

The weewuns now have them in hot pink, or dark blue, as well as natural.
