    Thanks Trish. I was thinking the same about flannel nappies. Is it considered safe by SIDS though? They recommend not having and loose sheets etc in the cot?

    I only had a small bassinet so i used to put flanny nappies down to stop spew and poo as well, and cause the bassinet is small its about the same size as the nappy so i could tuck it under the matteress just like an extra sheet so you don't have to worry about bubs suffocating and stuff:-) Hope that helps

    Oh and two sets of sheets will be plenty

    Thanks girls. My bassinett's a bit bigger and I can't tuck nappy in I could probably use the muslin wrap on top of the sheets instead

    I had 2 fitted bassinet sheets and have 2 fitted cot sheets. I bought them at baby bunting as a 2 pack of bassinet fitted sheets and individual for cot fitted sheets.

    I have also always put cloth nappy under head in bassinet and cot, only stopped at about 7 months.


    if your bassinet is too big to use a cloth nappy you could wrap a cotton bunny rug ariund mattress and tuck in.

    Good luck

    I'm not sure about the SIDS guidelines re: cloth nappies, but you can wrap/tuck them around the bassinette mattress so they are fitted IYKWIM?
