Not getting on with cloth atm

Postby MissFrodo » Sun Jan 03, 2016 11:04 am

Not sure why tbh maybe little guys pee more :giggle: but somehow our nappies don't work good enough.
We get leaks, inners not staying in place, more leaks.
Never had problems with the girls, using dispo atm as I was getting mad with all the leaks but that's not the answer.
Anyone had this problem and how did you solve it or was it just a period?

We are trying to figure a like problem here http://www.clothnappytree.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=123294
My answer is still fitteds or prefolds with covers - that is our bulletproof solution :) allthough we haven't tried prefolds but figure it does the trick just as fitteds does :)

What inserts do you use? And how longe since you stripped the diapers?
With leaks I allways first do:
1. Absorbency - is there enough? Are the inserts soaking? If yes ad more absorbency
2. If the inserts are not soaking the diaper might need a strip-wash
3. Fit - does the diaper still fit well - even with OS they might have a period where the fit is not as good.

It might be the fit atm mostly causing problems. Will see how it goes in a few weeks.
