Have heard recommendations about weenotions wraps before (although I can't remember if it was you Steph, or someone else lol), maybe I'll splash out on a couple. Ooh, exciting stuff! Note to self, check out weenotions tomorrow...!

I'm practical and functional for nappies (love the slimness of bamboo) and love all my lovely white-ish nappies hanging on the line. I love pretty wraps and currently have an addiction to wool. My wool stash is getting out of hand!

I'm glad it's not just me who has a practical but slightly boring stash.

But I'm definately going to invest in a couple of gorgeously pretty wraps before my DD is out of nappies and I have to get rid of everything :cry:

Well the fist 6 months was very practical - white little lambs with the white little lamb wraps. They worked really well, and I have no problems with them. Then I went to trying pretty wraps and bamboo nappies. Then pocket nappies, now I have lots of pretty ones. Actually we have been lucky, there aren't too many we didn't get on with. The ones that we weren't so fond of were nippa bambeasys (David can't work nippas well) and wonderoos.

How do they measure up compared to a ME Rikki, does anyone know? Connor's still in medium Rikkis, and I think they're supposed to go up to 20lbs. Don't know what he weighs exactly, but it's definitely a few more pounds than that. I suppose getting a large weenotion is safest, but I'd want to be able to use it straight away rather than wait for him to grow into!!

I bought a medium when Isabelle was in medium rikkis and had to size up to the large - they were very helpful though and swapped the wrap over straight away - so I would say get the large and if it's too big I'm sure they'll swap it straight away for you...
