    Gudism hope you find what you are looking for! In my nappy stash I have a bit of everything (well, actually, a lot of everything! I went nappy crazy!) and though my DH is now well versed on nappies, the most husband friendly thing would have to be AIOs and pockets that you have stuffed for him already. Same with inlaws. Fitteds and covers confuse them, they end up putting covers on AIOs and pockets. And the best way to get hubbies and in laws on the cloth bandwagon is to use something easy!

    You will not believe how many brands there are out there....

    And I think the trial pack you mentioned earlier was a good idea to try different things.

    BUT, I find that fitteds and covers are the best protection against leaks, so I prefer fitteds and covers.

    Sammi, I love the one haute pocket that I have! Isn't it funny how we all love different things I bought it off B4B and I'm now thinking about getting some new ones!

    Mel, I think trying a few different sorts is a good idea. Just remember....although it's not always the case, usually with nappies you get what you pay for. So while some nappies might seem quite expensive, it's usually because they're good! A nappy that's crap, and just doesn't work, is a complete waste of time, because you end up changing clothes etc all the time and the nappy ends up on the shelf!

    Janie you can have my Hautes ! I have 4 and I've been thinking of getting onto B4B to offload them- they do nothing for us and I think I'd rather just get rid of the darn things and put the money into something else.
