Happy Heiny Pocket Nappy

thanks for that Amy. So if the HH nappies were full price you would still have to purchase the insert seperate anyway? Is that right? Sorry i am new to cloth so just looking for ones to try right now and $16 seems cheap as one to try.

Yeah I checked it out - the inserts come seperately.

hey

I love my HH nappies they r the best.

But i have always got 2 inserts with them a big and small.

$16 is good but if you have to buy inserts you maight be better getting from somewere else.

Looks like I have to go shopping again! Where is the best place to get them from?

When I've bought them in the past they've been about $22-25 (can't quite remember?) and yep, I've bought boosters separately.
BUT here's a tip if you'd like to save $$ - I often buy microfibre towels from K-mart (or bigW) to boost my pockets. They come in packs of 6 and cost around $10. I use two towels per nappy, folded into thirds. Of course they don't hold as much as bamboo but are so inexpensive and quick-drying (like the nappies). Obviously being microfibre they should be used for pockets only, not against baby's skin. HTH!

I emailed the lady on the website and you are right they don't come with inserts but she said you can use any inserts in them.

Thanks for that tip Amy - will look into that.

Different stores have different policies so you always need to check. Usually a one size pocket will come with it's inserts included but don't assume esp if they are super cheap. Green kids don't come with inserts and I think the weewuns and baby blossom you have to buy the insert seperately. At the nappy bucket we used to do all our pocket nappies with inserts included and I'm pretty sure the new owners have kept to the policy Usually they will have a thing in the description and then a drop down box that will either say add an insert (ie not included) or add an extra insert. (insert included) Sometimes you might get to choose the insert that is included so there might be a free one (ie microfibre insert) or you can upgrade (upgrade to hemp +$5.00) etc. Does that make any sense?

As for where to buy inserts from Snacksgave you a good idea, also try ebay or wahmnaps as their postage rates are generally cheaper than the big stores. If you wanted to get it fro a big store I would wait until I was ordering more nppies to get the value for money for your postage.

Happy Heiny's do have their own brand of insert but anything will fit, they are a wide crotch nappy so I would recommend either a bumgenius one size microfibre, $7-8 or a size happy heiny insert (to match the size of your nappy) A happy Heiny stuffin is their hemp insert or they have microfibre. a blueberry or jamtots hemp one size will fit and A bamboo foldup would fit quiet nicely too but steer clear of swaddlebee sized inserts are too narrow

Thanks Sarah - yea it made sense, even to a novice like me

I thought you were the owner of the nappy bucket as it is in your siggy. Will have to have a look there too.

I have only just started this (my son wore his first cloth this morning ) so i am not too up on inserts and what different ones are like but i will look into it. I have bamboo in the 3 i have - i like that but i gather that can be expensive?

I have just got my head around all the different types of nappies - i.e pocket, aio etc so now i have to look at the different types of inserts lol. It is very addictive already - my house is a real pig sty just now as i am spending too much time looking at all the different nappies lol oops
