    We also use the BBB for night time (with boosting and wool cover) - but he's outpeeing them most of the time too!

    Never thought of using Greenkids extra boosted... that might be a good option for his day sleep! Thanks Mel!

    I'm tempted to try the GFSN on MissyMoo's recommendation (even if they don't work for your kids, Mel!) Now to see how the budget will stretch...

    Nettie - they do work - if I chuck an extra booster on the outside. I have heaps of itti trifolds, so I just whack one of those on the outside - no biggie. I do that with most of the night nappies I have (except for green kids) even snoozywuns (the new versions seem to be not as absorbent as the bulky older versions especially). I just think my kids pee through everything.

    Peach - hard to say what is the best. I love my older style snoozy's, they are awesome, and yes I love my green kids cos the pockets dry quick and I just have extra inserts so I've always got some ready to make up if I haven't had time to do them.

    peach - NN are generally more expensive then normal nappies due to the amount of bamboo that is in them.
    Ari hon OMG they out wet a GF WOW!!!!!

    Ive actually been using an eco wool pocket for Vy at night. Works a treat..but I dont boost it with the booster that comes with it...ive made my own

    So in your cloth expert opinions, for cost and effecivness would I be better getting a genesa or a pocket? Sorry to be asking the same question over and over! With pockets could I use the magic-all inserts and then terry which I already have? And then I could use it during the day too...
    Its diffficult as I would hate to pay $40 then not be happy... not to mention if I order and more cloth I think DP will have a fit But then would pocket work out the same price once I got a cover and boosters? Sorry again to be hassling!

    If bubs is a heavy wetter, you'd be better off stuffing the pocket with bamboo boosters/inserts not terry

    GF's work for most people - just not my two little monsters.

    My 7 month old can outwet a GF too..... It doesn't seem much more boosted than the day ones?? She doesn't even outwet a Pop in without a night booster, but does a GF?? Strange....


    But neither of my two can outwet a Fluffy Bubs night nappy.....
    Kane is a massive wetter, and barley soaks the tri booster in the back.... no cover required!

    I have tried lots... and am now stocking up on only FB....

    Id go a dedicated night nappy for a big wee'er rather than a pocket.

    Maz- Why don't you use your night nappies on Vy?????
