Advice on wraps for a pocket user!

Postby northernruth » Sun Jan 25, 2009 7:11 pm

Need some advice from you lovely ladies who use fitteds - we are committed pocket users!

My sis is expecting baby no 2 in Feb and she knows it's a boy (baby no 1 is a girl). She used fluffles for the first one but didn't start till she was about 3/4 months old, so I don't know whether that meant she went straight into size 2's? Anyway she has loads of clothes passed on from friends so I thought I would buy her a nice wrap for the new baby. Was thinking something nice and embroidered (she won't have had anything like that, she's a lot more practical than me and will just have bought her initial nappies and wraps and never thought about it again!)

Anyway my question is - any top tips on good place to get wraps? Was thinking weenotions but open to suggestions. Also will weenotions (or whatever else you can recommend) fit over the fluffles? I know they are meant to be quite bulky. Finally do they do birth to potty wraps or are they all sized?

Any advice or thoughts gratefully received!

Weenotions would be good! And I have put a medium WN wrap over a sz 2 fluffle so that should be fine, I would go for medium though as the XS and S won't last long at all and the M start small anyway IYKWIM, and no they don't do OS wraps!

Thanks for all the advice ladies. I have been looking at both sites and might get her one of each. Do you get the same wicking problems with cotton wraps as you do with cotton pockets or are they more reliable?
