Little Lamb one size nappies were the first ones I bought when LO was 7 weeks old and I still use them every day. I add 1 extra hemp booster and it lasts 3hrs. They were bulky when she was very young but didn't put me off. If she's looking for cost effective and easy I think they're a good choice. Never had size 1 pockets so can't compare the sized with one size on a littley

I started my stash with loads of different brands and types of nappies. I have Milovia, Grovia Hybrids, Thirsties Duo Covers with prefolds, Little Lamb one size pocket nappies, Bum Genius 4.0 one size pocket nappies and Little Lamb Bamboo fitteds.

After a few months with a heavy wetting baby who has skinny legs, my favourite option by far are the Thirsties Duo covers paired with prefolds during the day and the Little Lamb Bamboo fitteds at night. The covers dry super fast, as do the prefolds and they are more economical than the all in one or pocket nappy options in the market. The Thirsties covers also have a double leg gusset which means that I've had zero accidents with these nappies. Absolutely love them!

Want to advise her to buy one or two types and just 3/4 of each to try. Not sure shes up for the trial pack her council offer. She won't be interested in pretties, just ease of use. I'm wondering whether to get her to buy little lamb fitteds and pockets in sz1. Good intro nappies I think? How are you getting on with the one size lls @clothmama?



One size LL have been great for us! Leon is too big for them now at 2.5yrs but hes mostly in undies now so not getting replacements. i reckon a few fitteds and pockets from LL and you cant go wrong :thumbsup:

Like someone else said it changes every week here!

@ems101 I do really like the Little Lamb one size but I dont' think they are quite as reliable as the size 1's, although prettier and slimmer fitting (not massively keen on the frilly bit of the sized). @LynniferT I'll try to get a review done once the bamboo is all up to absorbency and I want to have a play with some other inserts to see if I can get them working a little better with more stuffing. I keep meaning to try with the trifold booster that comes with the sized version to see how that performs.
