    Cushie Tushies

    So I have a few of these - but for when they are little, to "fold them down" do you just fold it in the same way that eg a bum genius folds, or is there a trick? Do you use a snappy to keep the folded bit in place?

    If anyone has any pics of their folding down style I would love to see?

    TIA!

    I have some and i thought that you just unsnapped the booster (and just layed it in the nappy instead) - then you can shorten the rise by folding it down at the front and using those snaps to fasten it. Does that make sense?

    I'll try to take a pic but i have never been good at uploading photos to BB!

    Its the only way i can think of doing it and cant for the life of me find my instruction/information thingy on them atm

    When you fold the big booster over, put it where you will need the most absorbency, ie. closer to the front for boys, more in the middle for girls. The Mini booster is the right length for NB fold to sit right in the middle and goes almost to both ends.

    Kim - The old velcro ones are harder to fold down. It should still be possible but it will be harder. I think all of the new stock is snaps. The new basix ones have the booster sewn in at the front. I prefer the coutures for the fold down because you can put the booster where you need it. (I have experimented with a friend's NB!!)
