firstly any reccomendations for disposable nappies for boys....i'm still learning about all this so I am guessing that differnt nappies work for girls and boys (probably a really silly question)
secondly, i have been told about a place in ferntree gully that sells "Seconds" nappies.
I am not entirely clear on whats wrong with them but I am led to believe that it might be something as silly as the motif on the nappy being blurred etc.
does anyone have any experience here or advice? I was just thinking that if I can buy 100 seconds nappies for $10 it's gotta be better than 100 huggies for $45.....
The firsts at the place in Ferntree Gully are around $27/100 (depending on the size). We use them and find that they work well. The seconds are usually nappies without the tabs - and come with a bag of tabs that you attach yourself. They are around $15/100. It's called Nael Fran.
I would say you could save yourself a lot of trouble and buy 100 Mamia nappies at Aldi for $5-6 more. It could be more nappies for that price but I know the size Noah is in is 50 per pack at $16.99? I have been really happy with Mamia nappies but now Noah is in f/t cloth, I will use Mamia when I go away and when this little squirt is born for the first few weeks.
thanks for the advice ... do you find you get any leakage?
a few mums have sworn black and blue that anything other than huggies is sure to guarantee lots of washing......
I actually found I leaked with Huggies and never with Mamia but I have never tried Mamia newborn size because we only got our Aldi about 6 months ago. It doesnt hurt to try a pack of each to start with and see what your preference is. Just buy a small Huggies pack on special and a Mamia which is always $15-16.99 and see which works best for you. Huggies has recently changed something in their nappies and more people are finding they leak more so I am hesitant to get them for this one myself. The only downside to Mamia is they are not gender sorted so at one stage your boy might be in pink accented nappies and a girl in blue accented nappies a small price to pay for good quality cheap nappies in my mind
hi there,
I have used the premium tabless seconds from Naelfran and found them excellent, never a leak, good fit - though slightly smaller than the Huggies equivelent. Be prepared to spend an hour or so sticking the tabs on in front of the tv when kids are in bed - most of the nappies were only missing one tab, and a few were perfects (a nice surprise when you come across them). At present they are out of stock in the medium & large sizes in premium seconds - I rang them today.
Disposable nappies for boys and are "seconds" ok?
