At the moment we're using a mix of fitteds and nippa'd prefolds (boosted with a flannel folded in three), but they're all leaking through the clothes at the front. The only nappies that last his roughly 3hour feeding cycle are bambeasy size ones that take at least two days to dry and one very fluffy cotton tots bots with attached booster. I unpicked the Velcro so it would fit him with a nappy nipper. The problem is, I can't really boost these as the wraps (thirsties old style and duo) barely fit over top as it stands. He was only 7 pounds at birth so it's not like we can move up to a size two wrap at 4 weeks. Help?
Congratulations on the new baby ! What have you called him?
Have you tried wool? Can you add some hemp boosters which are thin but really absorbent. How about some MotherEase airflow wraps they are a bit more roomy?
Thanks! He's called Levi Joshua and he's such an easy baby compared to the others. I was wondering about airflows, but I've never had one. I'll see if anyone has one or two on the classifieds. I haven't tried wool. It all seems complicated to me, but I haven't really learned about it.
