.....what do you all use inserts wise with your pocket bots? I changed Evie before work and the nappy had been on about 2.5 hours tops. It had wicked around leg area, not sure why. I really love the 2 prints i have too

Are they cotton Nic, because if they are that is about all you can reasonably expect to get out of any cotton pul nappy except if you have a light wetter. Thats why I'm going for the poly pul prints, thats when you get 4 hours!!

Mine is a cotton print and it doesn't last as long as some other nappies, but the cute print makes up for that. It lasts the same as a print heiny which are also coton prints. They seem to work best with the blueberry inserts which are 3 layers of hemp and 3 layers of microfiber.

As you know I have my eye on the pink and lime stripe poly one, I am wondering if Hilary takes pre-orders :D :D :D

Ask Hilary Karen, i am sure she will!

Tory - ahhhh never mind, Evie is a heavyish wetter i think, judging by some of her nappies so guess i need to either sell one or bear that in mind then when she's wearing one. :lol:

Will keep eye out for the poly ones, may have to sell these two then to fund a poly one! :D

I've been using a hemp insert (swaddlebees or green acre designs) with a microfibre one on top (fuzzi or wonderoos). I've had a few wicking incidents with other combinations but not with this. It even lasted about 6 hrs the other day, with a coplue of those in the buggy.

I have decided to sell and will eagerly await the poly ones, that will hopefully suit Evie better. Will list these on nappy market in one mo. :(

Bummer that you have to sell them nic :cry: We always have trouble with our cotton happy heiny's. They only ever last 2 hours before wicking although they look so fab it's hard to not like them :!:

I know Sam, but when i have been putting them on i have not been able to trust them, so decided i needed to sell and then waiting to see which ones are poly ones out of the Autumn prints as i love the daisies on brown print. :D Hoping that is a poly one :wink:

Do you think maybe the large would be better? i can lend you one of mine to try if you like? Or my blueberry - that is the most reliable pocket i've got :D
