Thats a shame hon... but i will second what a lot have said, that when Dylan ever gets a rash the fitteds/wool combo sort it out. I have to line all of mine with either minkee or fleece (i have big liners too so they cover the entire inner of the nappy) otherwise he gets a terrible bottom, doesnt deal well with wetness contact.

May be worth trying a few different liners of different sizes to see if that helps?

Thanks hun but i've tried all of this. Dexter has been in fulltime wool since he was a few weeks old so sadly the fitteds and wool combo doesn't work here :-?

What a shame... many of Molly's fitteds leave red marks on her legs, I think its the fabric, serging, or the cut of the nappy that causes it on her, whereas our WN pockets have soft fleece leg bindings so when they get wet they mustn't rub as much. I still use the fitteds when Ive run out of pockets, and use huge fleece liners that poke out the legs so they seem a bit comfier. We didnt use cloth at night for ages, because we only had WNNN's that left horrible red marks, now i just boost some other nappies and they're not as bad (I really missed using wool at night!)

I hope you can get some "pocket" love soon :hug:

Can you alternate use of your fitteds? Maybe every other day or even every other diaper change?

Hugs to your babe's bum....

what inners are most of your fitteds? Could it just be one kind of fabric or soaker inside?

I love my fitteds way too much....

Maybe try the every other change then :hug:

My fitteds are all different inners and types, none of which seem to be any better than the others :-?
