LOL

We need some new covers and figured now would be the perfect time to buy

I've come across a lot of wool...

But...

I'm scared of trying wool!


Um, well, no not scared of trying but scared of spending money on something that doesnt work. I know, so many people use it and its works for them but...

I just cant get out of my head that its just not going to work! Thats its going to soak right through and saturate everything around it. I just don't understand this 'evaporation' thing... I mean, if I used it at night, wouldn't the fact that she isn't moving, plus her sheet or sleeping bag, stop the evaporation...? I imagine the sheet would be SOAKED if she slept ever slept through? Because once she's asleep she doesn't move or roll off her back, so her bum would be always be on the sheet so... no evaporation really possible...?

And what about during the day and when she has clothes on? I mean, do you just use the wool as pants (i've seen those longies, is that all you use?)? What if you want to put on other clothes, do you use a different cover? Does the wool always need to be exposed to air?

Oh, and do you change the wool cover every time you change the nappy?

And another thing (LOL I have a lot of questions about wool)... wouldn't it smell? And how do you wash it? I've read something about Lanolin...? Do you have to do that every time you wash? Because that sounds really tedious...!

And, well, for all those reasons I am too scared of spending any money on wool covers, or shorties, or longies...

But I'd love too because they're gorgeous!
