Hi,
My name is Fi, 26 from Bolton Manchester. We have a bonnie bouncy 2.5yr old lg called Abbie and her baby sister Ava is due 30.10.15. We used disposables with our eldest as ftp we didn't know a thing about cloth. We were also advised AGAINST cloth by our HV because she felt as I am physically disabled and use an electric wheelchair that'd be impractical for our circumstances. Back then I agreed but I never got the opportunity to look into it myself and make my own judgement on whether I could cope. Disposables we've had no end of problems with, near constant nappy rash and with a lg like ours with very sensitive eczema I so wish we'd of used or tried cloth at least. Now she's potty training I don't see the point in switching her now, but to hopefully avoid the same nightmare skin wise when Ava's here I want to go cloth from asap!
With our circumstances and my limited mobility I intend to go with pocket nappies with Velcro fastenings only as I find poppers impossible. So this is the beginning of the cloth nappy journey for us and I can't wait to start building a good stash Any advise I will find very valuable
