Inserts for night nappies

Postby MaryMoon » Sat Aug 16, 2008 9:11 am

Hi Everyone,

William wets heavily at night and has been waking for a nappy change. Can't really boost his nappy anymore as his bottom would be way above the cot! Anyway, have decided to order some weenotions side snap night nappies but it gives me a choice of the insert bits.

What is best? I have no idea so any info much apreciated. :babyrolleyes:

Thank you :)

I have ordered a NN side snap. My insert is going to be bamboo for the large square and hemp for the popper in bit.

It needs to have bamboo as part of the insert as it needs something to soak up the wee quickly. Hemp takes a while to soak it up but absorbs a lot.

Thanks Tanya. I have ordered 3 with bamboo for the large bit, hemp for the popper bit and the inside as bamboo. Hope I have done ok with that. Was nearly tempted to buy some of the lovely wraps but I do have plenty of ME ones that are barely used.

For tonight I am trying him a Funky Nappy (massive pocket) with a microfibre triple layer Blueberry insert, a microfibre BG insert (doubled at the end where he wees) and a hemp booster thing. See how that goes.

I have 2 night notions, both have a bamboo outer, bamboo insert with a hemp booster. Never ever failed me and never ever needed extra boosting, even on a toddlers who wees rivers.

How did it go?
I just ask, as if we put that much microfibre in at night we would be wet. We have found that many layers of hemp with one microfibre booster on top is much better than 1 hemp and much microfibre.
Hope the night notions work well for you. We use a bamboo night notions with bamboo for the large square and hemp for the popper in bit. We also add a hemp easy peasy booster in there as well, and it is all sodden by morning.

It was rubbish. I suppose I am still on the learning curve. I have three hemp booster bits so will try that tonight and see how we get on. Will be much less bulky as well.

thanks
