MCN's differences between boys and girls - getting lots of leaks
So I used MCN's for DD who is now basically toilet trained (she won't use toilets outside the house but otherwise ok) so am now trying to use on my DS who is 8 weeks old and 6kg but have had a leak on everyone I have tried. My stash is mainly greenkids and BumGenius, with a few ebay cheapies thrown in. The leaks mainly seem to be around the waistline, but have had leaks from round legs too. Could my nappies just be too old e.g. leg elastic is too worn from my toddler? I don't want to buy more cloth if can help it but don't want to use sposies either. Melbourne weather is not kind for drying washing currently so all the leaks are a pain. Should I do something different for a boy (I already make sure he is "dressed down") e.g. in the bumgenius if I fold over the insert should the folded bit go at front or back (I assume front as that is wetest part in a sposie). All ideas appreciated.
