Bimbles ?

Hi

I have been offered a bundle of 10 bimbles by a friend of a friend, that can be used on a newborn ( or so I'm told )
Are these any good, whats the fit like, drying time ,what wraps do you find best with them and how much would you pay for them ? Sorry loads of questions but I only found cloth when Bethany was 5 1/2 months old so have no experience with a newborn. Any views / opinions welcomed

thanks

Fit is fab, we LOVED the XS ones on Grace as a newborn - I used the nippa version but either way they were fab... I think new they were £6-7 each...

Once she was over a week or two old the absorbency wasn't quite enough but they were very easily boosted...

Drying time was no problem, and wraps I used weenotions ones, the motherease rikki ones were simple but effective too...

And there's always wool

What size of bimble are they? the size2 are MASSIVE and I wouldn't use them on a small newborn as they'd be swamped!! I use a size2/OS one on Grace now as they're great for stuffing for nights, and it's a fab fit

brilliant thanks I am seeing her next week so I think I'll take them off her hands if they are the smaller sized ones. thanks again

We use the Bumpers, which are the bigger sibling of the Bimbles and we like ours. A bit plain and boring (They could be dyed though ) but they work fab for us

Quick hijack...

We have bumbles, but didn't know they did a bimble or a bambeasy in size 2. Are they a lot slimmer than the bumble?
