i went and picked up my new bbh hemp nappies today. the girl had found another hemp nappy by the time i got there plus also had 2 dyed hemp ones. i could only afford the first 2 today but told her if she cant sell them then let me know and i will come back and grab them!!! she was sooo nice. she gave me a bum g and haute pocket to try for free also. the bum g looks like its never been used. it came with a microfibre insert. how absorbant is that? or should i use a bamboo insert in it? also the inserts that came with the haute doesnt say whether its bamboo or microfibre. does anyone know?

WOHB - pea pod.

I recommend switching to a bamboo insert with for the BumG - mircofibre is absorbant but no where near as much as bamboo - you'll need to change nappy before too long if you use the mircofibre one only.

get two buckets! one in the bedroom or where you change bub and one in the laundry.

I'm pretty sure we dumped it in/on the bucket, which was in the laundry outside our the bathroom door, before going to wash hands. Maybe we didn't always wash our hands (or used that antibacterial stuff) because I remember sometimes we left the nappy sitting on the change mat to deal with in the morning too.

she gave me a bum g and haute pocket to try for free also. the bum g looks like its never been used. it came with a microfibre insert. how absorbant is that? or should i use a bamboo insert in it? also the inserts that came with the haute doesnt say whether its bamboo or microfibre. does anyone know?

I use the BG microfibre inserts. From about 18 months I found I had to boost with a bamboo booster but at 5 months it was fine. The microfibre is nice to use because they dry so fast. I like them as an around home nappy when I'm not having to potentially rely on a few hours in a nappy.

Hautes are microfibre inserts too- they should look like the same fabric as the BG inserts?
