Today's nappy. wish me luck!

Postby tiyuricc » Tue Aug 24, 2010 10:48 am

I was given a ton of ancient nappies that I have been as yet not brave enough to use, but today is the day.

They are imse blojan brand (presumably what imse vimse used to be called). They are thin white cotton, shaped, no elastic, no aplix/poppers. There is a fold-out tongue like you would get in many nappies, and the wet-zone section is a bit thicker. but still very thin. My best description is that they are the same shape as my old bamboozles, but so thin.

O guess they're essentially like a shaped prefold. But they dried quicker than the prefolds, so that's not boding well :giggle:

They have some very thin extra boosters so i've put two of them in there. I have resisted the urge to boost with something i know will work, I just want to see if these work at all! They don't even nippa so it's just been placed inside a wrap.

I've googled them and can't find a picture.

Wish me luck ladies, i suspect i'm heading for a disaster, especially if she falls asleep which i think she might. And she hasn't done her morning poo yet.

I had a couple of those for Lucas, I used to use them unboosted as stopgap nappies (if I knew he'd only be in it for an hour or two), under a Rikki wrap. I'm not sure about now but they used to be pretty popular - you might be pleasantly surprised :wink:

well we haven't had a poo today :shock: but i've used 2 of these, but took them both off after a little over an hour (not game to leave any longer) and they were no more wet than her hollow oak or tykies would have been after the same time. i expect they might do for occasional use, or to supplement stash in winter when it takes everything forever to dry without a dryer.
