Ah Gigi honey - you are a GODDESS!! You are right though - gotta post more - apart from anything I miss you guys. I do lurk, but it's not the same.

Mostly it seems that now that Euan is so active, it's inserts shifting inside the pocket. Either because he moves around so much, or because he is thrashing around on the table and it shifts while I'm putting it on. Short of staplegunning him to the table (and the nappy), I'm not quite sure how to solve this problem. The majority of leaks are in the wings or out the back and sides of a nappy. In a lot of cases the insert is barely damp. It usually happens when I put him down to sleep in a BumG or BP (am trying to only put him down in fitteds now), and when he wakes up he has a huge wee that just runs out the back or soaks the wings. I'm trying to identify if any in particular of my BumGs leak, if it's the dreaded leg elastic going. One seems a little less springy, but I don't know that it's that one that's leaked.

He is weeing more, but I don't think that it's an absorbency issue. I don't have fitteds leak on me (although he absolutely soaked the sugarpeas insert + a bamboo booster the other day and the outside of the cover was actually damp in a spot at the front). At night, he doesn't even dampen the shell of a night nappy (Lotus), but a Whizz Kidz is pretty damp come morning. They go on at about 10:30-11:00pm, and are off by about 8:30-9:00.

So far I haven't had a leak since the strip wash, but I've also been fairly vigilant about changing him before putting him down. I think I will start extra-boosting my BumGs though, if only to provide a bit more rigidity and stopping the inserts from bunching up when he wriggles around.

Thanks ma lovely - you're ace!
