What are the best covers for terry flats? I was looking at he BBH PUL's. I'm also not sure what size to get. Does it matter if I get them a bit bigger or will they leak?
Jack is 11 months and probably around 8.5 - 9kg, he is not overly chubby...but the flats are quite bulky on him.
Also can I use Maz's covers with flats?
Maz's go great with flats, I haven't used them a lot (flats) but i have never had an issue with pootainment. Motherease Rikki are highly recommended as flat covers, especially for newborns so I imagine they're still the great thing for older bubbas too. Welcome to the world off cloth Marlene. ;)
Must say your profile pic of jack in the BL on facebook is soooo darn cute.
I also saw some covers coming into Kitt3n's store that are one size fits all. I will be having a closer look at those when I get back from NZ. I have some sized BBH that I am currently using med and large. DD is jus over 10kg.
I have some MCN's, but also like using terry flats when I am at home (am making some boosters for them when I am in NZ).
Marlene .. BBH .. are Fab over flats .. i use flats alot at home coz they dry quicker .. if he's 9 kg ... id prolly get a med .......... or large ...
as MED size is up to 11kgs ..
PM me ;)
Baby beehinds ones would go great over flats - they are really generous in their sizings.
However - I prefer leg gussets on my covers - mainly cos the flats never go really close around their legs (well not the way I have my flats anyway!!), so I prefer the security of leg gussets.
Mother-ease Rikki are the bomb. Love em. They rock.
I love gussets too, my favourite covers are the Thirsties, never had a leak. I also like the Bummis covers, the ones we have now have no gussets but they seem to work fine to me. There the two brands in our house ;) lol
I use the BBH PULs with flats and have done for 12 months+ (have only used medium size) but am looking for something else as I find DD is soaking through clothes now. Hasn't been an issue in the past but I think at 17 months she is drinking lots more and we are having to change clothes at each nappy change.
I like Maz, Bummis and BBH covers. Upsizing will only cause a problem with leaking if you can't get a snug enough fit around the legs I've found :)
I have used Tots Bots Fleece covers since DD was 6 months old. They are size 2 (their sizing) and still fit her! She's just over 2 now. Just shove the sticky-out bits of nappy into the cover and they never leak. Sometimes a poo-splosion can leak, but hey, that can happen with any nappy!
