Opinions on Baby BeeHinds?

Hey

The coloured covers have been available for a while now. I got these when I bought my package back in May I think it was, or April.

It's the coloured wool covers that have only been out for a couple of months or so

Kim, you could use either hemp or bamboo for night or day - totally up to you. As others have said, the bamboo is slightly more absorbent, so lots of people use that for the night nappy because you need them to last the distance, KWIM? All the BBs need covers if you want them to be 'waterproof' on the outside.
Ah, I'd heard rumours of the coloured covers, but that they were still 'testing' them. Bring them on! LOL

It's interesting seeing some comments on Baby BeeHinds.

I disagree with all the negative comments hahahaha.

I think that if your babies butt crack is showing, then you haven't placed the nappy high enough at the back.
As for nappy rash, my daughter is nearly 13 weeks and we have been using the BBH's since about 6 weeks and she hasn't had nappy rash once. We use a microfleece liner as well as Cornstarch to help keep her dry..............and she is a super soaker during the first half of the day.

We also have had no problems with the covers.

IMO, it's all user trial and error, for example, if a poo was to seriously leak down the leg, then you haven't put them on firm enough (you need to have them high enough at the back to make them firm around the legs.

I bought the Full-Time package prior to giving birth and I haven't looked back. I absolutely love BBH's bamboo nappies

If you don't like the 'frills' around the legs, you can turn the frills in. This is what they recommend for ULTIMATE LEAK PROTECTION.

And just to comment on drying times. Yesterday was a nice sunny day. I had them out on the clothes horse from 9.30am and brought them in at 4.15pm because I was worried about rain and they were practically dry. They just needed say an hour under the ceiling fan to finish them off.

When it's not sunny, I hang them under the ceiling fan and they take about 24 hours. I never find this a problem, I wash every second day and never ever run short.

You are much more patient and probably more organised than I am then... if I hang outside at 9.30am most of my pockets are dry by 1-2pm on a sunny day. BBB used to take about 36 hours by comparison. That could be Canberra for you too.
