Bamboo terrys as prefolds

Postby Raaraa » Sun Apr 05, 2009 11:03 am

Hiya,

I used prefolds with my first but had a tumble dryer to fluff them up and they were always soft, but this time around I don't have a tumble dryer and they are like cardboard and I can't put his little bottom on them!
I can't afford to get lots of pockets and AIO though I love them and I want to keep using prefolds as well through the day.

Can anyone recommend any that will stay soft just line drying, can you use the lovely bamboo squares and fold them?

I have got some gusset wraps that will hold them in place, maybe?

I have used a WN bamboo trifold as a prefold, so essentially the same idea, but just 2 bamboo squares over locked together, was rather absorbent too!

You can get bamboo prefolds, can't remember where now though.

But yes, pad folding a bamboo terry would work

They are just something wee notions do, and maybe some other WAHMs that I don't know of, A bamboo terry (or 2) would be just the same I would think, you'd want 40cm I would think, how old/big is your DS??

Thanks, I live around the corner from Twinkle, resisted the urge to go in on a friday morning for a look. Must try one of their nappachinos.
