    What do u grab first?

    lets pretend that all your nappies are washed, dried and all put away nicely (haha yeh right!)
    what nappy do u always grab first and why??

    we always go for the BBH petites
    why-
    theyre a beautiful fit on DD2 and they're very absorbant and sooooo so slim its like shes wearing a sposie

    then i grab the monkey doodlez
    why- again a great fit on DD2 bit bulkier than the petites but still quite slim. awesome absorbancy too.

    Third is the BBH magicalls
    why- super absorbant, but very bulky on her little butt.

    and last we grab the CT's
    why-.....do i really need to fill this space?

    IB's, as they fit really well, reliable and it is what we mostly have.

    Second is the BOB

    toss up between IB's, widdlewuns and twinkle lily's - if i'm packing the nappy bag, they're the ones that go in

    We bought some home made nappies off ebay, these are the ones i grab first as they fit well and are really absorbent. then we grab the Rainbow BB's not the best nappies i have had but they are ok.

    Bundles of buns first cos they are the best fit and last the longest.
    Ecobums...same reasons but I have to stuff them
    Happy Heinys - I know they're mf but they're great for the nappy bag.
    BBH fitted are last cost it's a pain keeping him still enough to put a cover on as well these days and he's still so little they're just too bulky, so they're an at home too lazy for a cover jobby

    Great thread!
    1st is BumGs. Never had a leak! These are the ones I put in the nappy bag & use when he has a nap as I know he'll stay comfortable.
    2nd is BBH Magicalls. He has just gone up to the large size & I don't completely trust them yet! Once he grows abit more it'll be a tie with the BumGs!
    3rd is Hautes. They don't seem to wear as well, as in elastic & velcro problems, so I don't like to use them as much. Plus they seem to leak more.

    Depends where I am going!!
    If it just around the house - usually GF's for DD1 and DM's for DD2.
    For naps - WW for DD1 and usually BBH for DD2
    For going out - BBH for DD1 with a wool cover and BBH and motherease cover for DD2.

    I should add that most of DD2's stash is BBH - I don't have a great amount of nappies that she fits into cos she has to share with DD1 as they both fit into mediums.

    But I have ordered another 6 DM's... soooo now DD1 can share them with DD2.. lol

    oooh I can still post in this thread as my 3yo needs one for his night sleep. He has three that still fit his tiny butt LOL And I grab in this order:

    The Imsey Vimsey All in One ....(biggest and most absorbent)
    The Bum Genius ...Good absorbency but pocket pad not as good as the IV)
    The IttiBitti ... getting a bit small now, only use when desperate.

    We also use Aldi pull ups.

    1. BBH multifits: love them, best nappy i have found for ds by far
    2. Bumg's: Another great nappy but ds has worked out the velcro so could get messy lol
    3. Itti bittis: great nappy but not a great fit on my ds
    4. CT's: Cant stand them and only go on for half hour to an hour and i still get leaks.

    What time is it and where are we going?

    Morning, off to Nursery: I grab the Motherease AI2 nappies with either a fleece liner or a flushable one, depending on what has already happened that morning.

    Morning, at home, rainy day: Nature Baby stuffable with a prefold inside. Bulky, but DS has such a tiny bum he needs bulk

    At home, sunny day: pants and spend the day in the garden. That has been the plan for a couple of weeks, since he has shown an interest again, and it has raied.

    Evening, at home: training pants. If DS does anything it's caught and if he doesn't then he doesn't.

    Bedtime: Ella's House Hemp nappies with a cover. Absorbant and soft... although DS is nearly dry at night now, it's still great for the first thing in the morning!


    We have a couple of other types of nappy, but those are the ones I grab first.

    When at home I always pick my least fav just to use them and save my fav and pretties for going out!! So usually at home I use peapods. CT, Hautes and prefolds.

    Going out I use my Ittis, WAHM's pretties, etc.

    Nights - Motherease and BBH nights.

    First pick would be an Issy Bear! They are my latest newest purchase and I love them.... following that it'd be a Green Kids and then an Itti Bitti!

    BBH magic w snaps- Always use the pink ones first

    Last pick either itti bitti as she wets it within an hour or blueberry pocket- rips the velcro side off strait away.
