Gigi- i have honestly not read half of those responses! lol have now. NOt sure it is my lack of concentration or the forum moves a littel too fast sometimes that i dont remember how far to read back if i dont check for a day. So please dont take offense - just think i am a little dense if i ask the same question twice im sorry i do this

I am trying the BBB again tonight (i have been experimenting like you say to find what works). I am having a trifold inside under the short and double long snap in bamboo boosters and going to do them tighter to try and reduce waist gape. Then see if perhaps a little less bulk might make the BB wool cover fit better in the rise... i can only try.

My theory behind using less bulk (although it probably sounds backwards) was that we had a busy day today and i put a standard bbb + pul cover on her at 1230 and with all the driving around and hospital visits i didnt get her home (where she was asleep in the car) for hours and she slept in this... until 530pm. So 5 hours and no leaks.... BBB was soaked but no leaks....

The wool covers (large) were BRAND NEW . SO it isnt an issue of shrinkage.

I measured her and she has a 19inch rise with the boosting as above with the BB wool on. So i will use that to look for longies and shorties.

I will back off a little on the questions, i am sorry but i do get a little confused and frustrated waiting for that lightbulb moment.

xxoo
Sorry Pink - i wasn't trying to get you to ask less questions.

I am feeling a bit fragile (had PND for nearly two years now, very hard to get help for it) and probably read too much into you not having read my posts - so that's my bad, not yours. I apologise.

You are pregnant, prolly very tired and maybe not having the time to read ALL the posts that have come up since you visited this thread the day before - which would make it easy to miss mine. I should have just posted the link to my prior post, instead of coming to the incorrect conclusion, so i am sorry.

THis forum is all about asking questions, please don't let me being fragile, put you off asking questions. Each time YOU ask a question, there are bound to be plenty of other people who benefit equally from the answers/brainstorming that results (after each question.

i answer the same questions over and over on multiple forums, but on other forums i can post url (website links) which makes it very easy for the person to go to the info and saves me having to type out heaps of stuff. I can't do that on this forum, not allowed, - even for cloth advocacy sites (not for profit, no money involved).

sorry to have over-reacted Pink, my apologies, it was silly of me and out of order.
