    BBH prewash advice

    Hi

    I am new to MCN and my BBH have just arrived!! I just need some advice re the prewash. I plan to wash them 3 times but do they need to dry between washes?

    Also do I need to do anything to the wool covers before using them?

    One last question do I need to use a liner? What sort of liners does everyone use?

    TIA xx

    I'm in the same situation as you, my order of BBH have just arrived. Did you receive the how-to-guide that came with the nappies? That lets you know what you need to do with the prewash, and what to do with the wool covers.

    No you don't need to let them dry between washes. You can lanolise the cover if you like but I don't Depends if you have a big wetter or not though. If you do have a big wetter then lanolising it will help with it's waterproofing but it will eventually leak if it's saturated.

    For liners I use microfleece from spotlight. Look for stuff called little additions (or similar, i think they changed the name of it).
