... Or you could buy a couple of the bamboo soakers and mix and match with the minkee... That was my other plan ;)

I use mainly tots bots bamboozle with fleece soaker like pumkin pants or pul blueberry or nature babies wraps. Never ever have leaks. I'm sure there are good pockets and aio out there but was disappointed after the little lambs and heard 2 parters are more reliable so tried and there great so don't want to mess around trying others in case they're no good...

How you find the fleece @Katielou compared with pul? Do you still get the same amount of time out of the nappy?

Yes I love them I use them most of the time I like the fact of no elastic so hardly any marks on her legs and just look so much comfier! There strange sometimes if I have her sitting on my lap I feel a slight dampness but feel her bum and it feels dry. I get the same change time, like i say sometimes feel a slight dampness but more like if you've been a bit sweaty in clothes than actually wetness, not to change clothes or anything. You'de have to try them to see what I mean. The sizing is a bit small of the pumkin pants I think, I made some of my own. What age is you lo @Kim, Boy of girl?

Also people say you can only use fleece once and they need washing, I haven't found this to be true. I use mine for a day easily, sometimes a bit more. also another good thing is they can go in with any other wash load your doing and are dry in no time at all!

Can you use fleece on a small baby or only once they start moving around more? Also this might be a stupid question but do you just put clothes over them as usual?

Yes you can put fleece on small babys mine is only 5 months nearly she doesn't move at all! Normal clothes are fine like I said sometimes you get a very slight damp feeling in the area from the compression when they don't move but not enough to change clothes or anything. Fleece clothes over top are more effective but not necessary imo.
