Cloth Nappies #186

Hey Maz - cool about Tank's hips. I was using the old flats which were too bulky in the middle and pushed out the hips and it was a big no no! But the new mcns are much trimmer in the middle so are OK. My oldest boy has CP (or closer enough) and there is also an hereditary hip condition thru the family so have had to be little careful. My Cp boy who had to wear sposies since his diangosis had has huge hip probs and surgeries anyway so prob made no difference.

Tank has CP aswell hon. I can still see his wonky hips when he runs but atleast he's running

Back again for some much needed advice...

BBH Covers, Small - How long will they fit bubba? (Approx of course) & Whats the difference, or which do you prefer PUL or Wool? & Why? Thanks in advance again!

[meow]

Not that I've used them yet but I'm going to be going for PUL covers. I'd love to stick to natural fibres and have wool but you can't machine wash wool and you have to lanolise them. PUL ones can be washed with the other nappies.

Ammaki the BBH wool rubs on Leah's legs and leaves red marks that stay for days. I prefer PUL.

[kawazuki]

personally i like PUL as i seem to always stuff up teh washing with wool and shrink them so for safety in the washing machine i got PUL

this is just my personal opinion though.

but teh wool covers are soo cute as well its hard not to choose them lol

have no advice re sizes though as never used that brand covers

[Cupcake]

Looks like PUL is the winner for comfort & practicality haha. Might buy a couple of second hand covers to try them out thanks so much!

Also does anyone know of MPM members who sell the Snappis? I think thats what theyre called LOL. Im trying to look around websites but not having much luck..

The little clippy thinga ma bob that hooks onto prefolds? Or did i make that up? LOL

[teresa]

u use it to hold together terry and prefolds instead of using pins. its like a T shape with little hooks on it. its stretchy rubber

[Cupcake]

Ok good i didnt make it up haha

[alioops]
