Well I discovered the reason Isabelle's tots bots don't seem to fit as well as I think they should... It's because she's right at the bottom of the weight range for them!
Having taken the velcro off her pink rainbow-bot it is a miles better fit but I'm in two minds as to whether to do it to the bamboozles...
Thing is I know they'll fit much better and shouldn't have problems nippa-ing as the nappy-nation bamboo nippa nappy I have is fine in that respect (altho' not as good as terry ones)...
But I'm going to be getting the nursery to use cloth soon and can't help thinking it might be easier for them to have velcro nappies...
That said I'm sure they can be taught how to use a nippa if they don't know already! I know she's not the only baby that comes in cloth so...
I've got some more pockets coming so she can use those at nursery but I can't really afford enough to do all three days without washing a tiny load more often which I'm not prepared to do...
So - decisions decision...
DH likes the velcro but can see that they're a better fit when nippa'ed and is happy to use a nippa (knows how but he's just not practiced enough at it yet and so it feels a bit akward for him - hence prefering velcro - but then he's not keen on poppers either as he thinks they're not as adjustable... I disagree but that's another matter!!)
I was thinking about buying two more bamboozles in a colour I don't already have and taking off the velcro straight away - but at £9 a nappy I'm not sure...
Thoughts??
