    What should I try next?
    Hi Winter

    What recommendations are you after? More fitteds, or something like a cute AI2 or some pockets.... or some AIO's?

    There are sooooo many good brands out there that I'm sure everyone will say you just HAVE to try

    BG - buggers babe

    Missy Mel - I'm glad you are taking care of your emotional wellbeing too sweets!

    WOTB's: night nappies still. He's still in his monkey suit and she's still asleep.

    Hey all,
    Have been lurking, but not much to say. Bubbys bum is a cloth one I am happy to say. However it is getting bigger.....
    Quick Q, was there some chat about a member here setting up a B4B type thingy? Otherwise is B4B the best place to offload some outgrowns?
    Waiting on my first batch of post birth fluff. Yay.
    Also, pls help me.
    I am lazy, I have decided my fave nappies are aio's, in particular pockets with aplix. (these also best suit DP, MIL and anyone else who changes him)
    I have a bunch of BBB and BBH but by the time i put them on plus a cover, lil mans butt is mega, and when I lay him down, his bottom half is higher than his top half and he seems to spew more in bed.
    The only thing that gets me using them is my lovely maz covers
    So do I keep em? will this problem get better as he grows? (am thinking it will) or do I just accept the fact I am a lazy bugger and flog em and get "easy" nappies. Dont want to regret getting rid of them but dont want to keep 12 odd nappies I dont use.

    I'd keep them Shell (and welcome back !!)

    You might need them when he's older, not puking as much and they don't make his bum as big! Plus they would be more absorbent than AIO's - so might be good for night time use.

    I use our BBB's during the day here for both kids - I love them!!

    Sweet, thanx for that Mel. x
    Will put em in the drawer for later. Would kill me to sell them for 1/2 price when lots of em never even been used.

    Keep them Shell! Unfortunately they will fit wonderfully soon enough. They grow too fast *sigh*

    hi, i'm another one who stalks this thread but hadn't posted yet!

    i'm still researching before bubs is born, but i've been reading some great reviews on here of the mother-ease covers & was just wondering if anyone had feedback on the mother-ease nappies? specifically the sandy's as they're sized.

    sorry for gatecrashing - just thought it was better than starting another thread

    Just when the boys decide to poop and wee themselves stupid it bloody rains and gets cold (and I use the term 'cold' loosely as its not cold by the rest of the countries standards lol), so a whole load of boosters are in the dryer.

    Sami - I dislike hautes. We have some haute pockets I use as daycare nappies for Ds2, they are not a good fit for chubby babies imo.

    Feeling a bit down and out so off to wallow in my own misery..........and maybe fluff shop...........

    Haha Anna - fluff shopping makes everything all better

    Sami - Hautes - I have three - I have the snaps, and I think I would prefer the velcro. They aren't too bad though, not that much different than bumg's and cheaper - so thats a good thing. However, my babies are long and skinny - so could be why we don't have a problem?

    Thinking about putting in a custom order with bundles of buns for two nappies since we've been "Stimulated" bwahahahahah
