Weehugger wicking :(

I love my weehuggers but the other day we had major wicking, well it was a bit more than that, the whole crotch area was soaking. It couldn't have just been from the binding, it must have come through the PUL. Am I right in thinking that a spin in the dryer might fix this?? :D

You might to skip over my answer :oops:

Is it a print wrap? I had terrible wicking with the print wraps...like you said...not just around the legs but the whole crotch area :( i had it happen twice and then sold them on...sooo pretty but i cant be doing with soggy clothes...

Apparently the solid colours are much more bomb proof that the patterns but im yet to try...£13 for a wrap that wicked just made me want to :cry: :roll:

ETA a spin in the dryer could well be worth a shot! :wink:

It is a print, and I use them as a wrap actually, could never get a good fit using an insert, too much bunching up :giggle: will try the dryer and see if it does the trick. Thanks ladies :wink:

Hi ladies,
I've had this problem too :( I tried tumbling it to seal the pul but it still wicked afterwards though not as bad. The fit seems good & I used a weehugger insert so not sure what else I can do :-? Any other ideas? otherwise it'll be going up on here.
:hug: :bf:

We had the same problem and swapped to thirsties duo wraps instead, no problems with them at all.

Ours wicks as well. I was so gutted. I've given up using it as I just can't bear the soggyness.

If you are using a weehuggers insert check how much bunching up you are getting, if its bunching up lots at the front/middle thats usually the problem, putting them in a tight fitting insert sock and adding an extra booster can fix the problem.
