Now i just need to suss the cotton HH i bought from Karen out. That had leaked badly earlier today

Was that the one with the roses? What did you use as inserts?

That's the one, it is cotton outer and i used to have some cotton outer pocketbots too and they always wicked. The HH today was saturated though. It had one easy peasy hemp insert, one thickish mf insert and 2 folded m/f cloths. Next time i use it i am popping another extra hemp one in to see if that makes the difference.

Wow, I find that 1 easy peasy + a microfibre insert does us for 3 hours or so (assuming she hasn't just had a bottle of milk). However I have tried m/f cloths, and just can't get them to work as inserts. I would go for extra hemp. The only reason I use the microfibre inserts is so that the wee gets time to soak into the hemp. Hopefully an extra hemp booster will help you.

Thanks Rae, will definitely try it with another hemp insert and i just use the mf cloths for the soaking of the wee and then the hemp holds it more underneath. She is quite a heavy wetter i would say. If it still continues to leak i will keep it and just use it with a wrap over top, defeats the object i know but it is a gorgeous nappy and i told Karen i would look after it!!!

I think I'd skip the MF cloths nic and put another hemp in as MF tends to squish wee out when it is wet...

Ok hun, do you think the mf insert will be ok though and just leave the mf cloths out next time?

Just the one mf insert is probably fine just leave the mf cloths out and replace them with cotton bamboo or hemp
