    i noticed Daddledoo is having four weeks of sales thi smonth (just before Ms Daddledoo ahs her baby), so look out for that.

    if your relative buys
    - starbunz (sewn in absorbency with optional pocket if needed)
    - daddledoo (price includes a bmaboo trifold)
    - genesa forge (price includes a snap in bamboo booster
    - blueberry (sewn in absorbency)
    no bamboo trifold needed to buy extra. except if child needs more absorbency than the starbunz aio style offers (it's a hybrid).

    the concept of inserts in ANY pocket nappy or pocket trainer is that you can use ANY trifold, as long as it FITS.

    the trifold, when folded in three, must be AS WIDE as the NARROWEST part of the nappy e.g the crotch.
    so if the itti bitti trifold fits that criteria - well and good.
    but bear in mind, the itti is a narrow crotch style nappy.
    their trifolds are not as versatile, when used in other brand products, as the three sections are pretty well divided - like a prefold. this works GREAT in an itti bitti nappy, but won't suit other products UNLESS they are the exact same width.
    whereas a TRIFOLD that has no panels sewn down, is just a rectangle, that you can fold as you wish. the trifold is the most flexible option, cos you can easily fold it to suit either narrow OR wide crotched products (nappies or trainers).

    another option for trifolds, would be the microfibre car cleaning cloths. $2 per cloth. to get comparable absorbency, you would need more of them in a pocket, so that would increase bulk.

    have you got any peapods bamboo inserts? they would do the trick.

    gigi - im after the starbunz pocket nappy/cover or aio .

    who was after KK's ?
    i have about 7 or so that are too small on DS that need rehoming, they are such a good night nappy , DD is still only 8.7 kgs or so , so we only use BBH minky magic alls at night

    the Multi fits are good , a bit wide in the legs , but ive never used one on DD , so i cant really say BUT , at my demos they out sell the magic alls so i guess thats a good sign !!!

    I was after KK's - but in the larger size - I think I have a m/l here that fits both kids perfectly.
