Well we've tried the bamboo nappy and it kept Noah very dry, I used 2 liners in it a bamboo and fleece one and he was comfortable and the nappy didnt feel wet just the liners, it contained the poo well too.

I use the cotton LL and they are fab. Used my MF one a couple of times, but althuogh it dried VERY quicky, it lasted less than half the time of other nappies. My best fitteds are def my bamboo tots bots

I don't find Adam is wet all the way to his waist if I make sure and change him every few hours. I use a fleece liner and his skin stays dry. The odd occasion he's been left too long he is damp but I find that with any nappy, and at least the cotton and bamboo are breathable, natural fibres.

Mummypeanut I have done the experiment! lol
The microfibre Little Lamb took exactly 22 hours to dry. This was air drying in a fairly warm house but not on or directly close to a radiator so if you have central heating you can assume they will dry within a couple of hours on a rad I reckon. What pleased me though was that they were just a soft and fluffy as when I dry them in the tumble dryer which I don't think you get with cotton or bamboo. Hope this helps.

thanks for doing that really appreciate it!!

I use the LL bamboo nappies. I have 20 and they last for 3 to 4 days intotal (use a disposable at night as LO is a BIG wetter - and they are better at wicking away during a 13 hour stint in one over night).
I usually wash them and bung them on the radiators around the house. They are all dry by the next evening. The fleece liners are pretty much dry within a few minutes (and the poop falls off them into the loo like a dream!)

I admit that LO will wear a LL if we go out, but I'll only carry one soggy nappy around for the rest of the day out - she'll be put into a disposable if need be once we are out.

Apart from that I think they are grand. My LO is on the 95th ish centile for height and weight so grew out of the size 1's by 8/9 months, but hopefully the size 2's will last the difference until potty training.

As an aside, I've noticed that she will hold off peeing for a few hours and then do the biggest pee in your life. Might be due to the feeling of wetness that you do get with a real nappy (rather than the disposable) but I'm hoping that this will come in useful for when potty training starts!
