    I used bambino mio on my little boy.

    Loved it. Easy to use and clean, no rash problems, the main issues is the drying time. Which is short, but so many nappies and it rains a lot in my neck of the woods.

    If I hadn't have been given some fitted ones for free and then decided to try other types I'd still be using them non-stop. The training pants are great too. But now he's bigger and more mobile I prefer him in fitted/AIOs. Although I never had leaks with bambino mio, it's more with the pinning him down to change a nappy thing! AIOs are quicker to change.

    Actually, I still use the bambino mio nappies, but in stuffable covers. So just one thing to deal with at a time still. They're fab.

    Oh yes, overnight - just use the larger size nappies (the white not the purple edging). Went all night for us until about 9m old when he needed something a bit more, but he was waking a LOT at night.

    I pre-washed just in normal water with no detergent. I didn't even heat the water, just the "as it comes" setting on the machine. I understand that it's important to get them washed and dried 2-3 times rather than use any particular detergent.

    It worked for me - but if I'm wrong then I hope someone will tell me!
