just lost my post to you...

here goes again

Its a very good idea to get a trail pack, so you can see what works best for you and baby, twinkle on the web or babykind I know do these.

Babykind are very good as they do know their nappies and will talk to you over the phone, they also have a useful section which tells you if you can get cash back from your local authority for converting.

I've brough from ebay, babykind and Sarah.

Please feel to pm me with any questions

Good Luck and can't wait for you to get started now

I sell nappies and Babykind are my main supplier but I am usually cheaper than them ;)
I love Stuffies and Swaddlebees organic velour. But Fuzzi's are very popular too.
Let me know if I can help!

oh yes, Sarah is cheap!!!:cheesy:

Fuzzi's are my fav and Dh got to grips with them very quickly, swaddlebees are ok but if you have a very heavy wetter may not suit. Dd was better in them than Ds.

*AHEM* I hope you are refering to my prices!!

Isobel is a heavy wetter and the swaddlebees organic velour are fine for her. We didn't get on with AIO's though.

:clapping:

ooh missus, I bet you are.

Thinking about trying a wonderoo as I spoke to someone at BK today who said that they are much better with the new desgin, so next month will be spending some pennies on 1 or 2 depending on how my ebaying goes when I get around to it

Kerry, sorry about the cheap banter. How old is amelia? I may be in a postion to lend you a couple of pocket nappies for you to try

I'm interested in this too - with my 2nd DS I started using cotton bottoms but they didn't suit him very well, but want to revisit for this one.

What would be needed for Fuzzi's?

For a fuzzi you just need the nappy and the instert which usually come together (I sell them together), and unless you want to use a flushable liner (I did) then that's all you'll need. I'm told they are very good and dry very quickly - here is a link (http://www.kipskabin.co.uk/index.php?cPath=13_32) to the ones I sell and you will get discount if you buy 6 or more.

Ooo they look a lot easier then the Cotton Bottoms and a lot softer too - I'll definitely be looking at them from you

Ella's House is currently a special offer for Real Nappy Week to encourage people to make the switch. Included is one Bum Hugger, two hemp nappies and two fleece boosters for £25. You'd also need to get some wraps. Bum Huggers are suitable for use overnight or for long journeys because they have extra absorbency. They've just improved the design so that it now has a pull out soaker so that it dries faster.

I'm not sure if the offer is up on their website yet - www.ehnappies.co.uk - but I'm sure if you're interested and want to get some, just email them and ask them about the RNW special offer

I'm also offering 5% off all cloth nappy and cloth nappy accessories on my website for real nappy week and there is still the discount on Fuzzi Bunz if you buy 6 or more :happy72:

I used rainbow Tots Bots until my baby was 6 months. They look very cute. I love all the different colours and the strawberry wrap looks great.

When he outgrew these I trialled a few different ones and found that Bambino Mio were the best option for me. He is now 13 months and am still using these. I have no complaints about them and would recommend them. They are comparatively cheap and quick and easy to put on and take off as you fold the nappy inside the wrap and put the nappy and wrap on together. Another thing is that they do not leak.

I have loads - totsbots, bamboozles, swaddlebees, bumgenius, happy heineys, whambamboo, plus others from the US.
I have found that a selection of different ones work best for me - try a few and see what suits you best.
A newish brand I really love are Baby Beehinds - very absorbant - you can get them from www.kittykins.co.uk

I've a BabyBehind and I'm abit fazed by it, not pre washed it yet cos I'm not sure, plus I need a bigger wrap, it may have to go still not sure yet.

Getting loads of hassle from Dh to get rid of lurking nappies

Give it a whirl - the first time I used it I got it wrong because it is a btp and I didn't fold the front down properly - I used as a nighttime this week and it worked really well :)
