Eww greusome child! Any help?

Hiya, We have only been using real nappies for less than a week but two times now he has pooed, taken them off and then eaten his poo! He is ten months. Earlier he was in his cot napping, i could hear him wake up and playing so I thought i would leave him there while he was content, went back in and there was his nappy with handfuls of poo in his hair, mouth, on the sheets etc. i am using pre folds with ll wraps with velcro at the mo. He never did it with sposies! help!

sam can easily get off aplix/velcro type fastenng nappies and does as soon as you put one on, and has on occasion taken them off and wee'd or poo'ed on the floor- i have had to change to popper nappies and wraps. Motherease to a popper wrap and lots of pockets are poppers-- we like fuzzi's alot at the present i think they like the noise it makes and now the few times sam has been in a sposies he takes that off too

I think a lot of people go for side snaps if their LO's do that. luckily i dont have that problem yet.
at eating poo though. hope you get it sorted.

I should be getting some pockets soon so maybe that would help but in the mean time do you think I could put some masking tape over the velcro?!

maybe make sure he is in a vest thats poppered up untill you get your other nappies?? That way he cant get to the sides!!

What are side snaps? x

nappies that do up with poppers which are on the side of the nappy rather than doing up at the front

ewww - but i cant say much - my nearly 3 year old has just started to take off his nappy and wipe it everywhere he can.....hence the need to potty train - and fast!!

That is ultra gross! Lili does like to undo velcro but fortunately we haven't had any nasty incidents yet (the nappies have been either clean or nearly clean)... I do find that I have to cover them up, she has to have trousers/shorts on with velcro nappies and wraps!
