Awww, I love reading about helpful OHs

I guess we'll see what DH is REALLY like with the nappies very soon, but it was shocking to me that he preferred the idea of terries and prefolds and a seperate wrap. He is genuinely very good at folding them (on a teddy...again, no practice on a live wriggling child yet!) and loves nippas and boosters and liners, and understands different ones for different things. He likes the Flips, too, he says they are 'very sensible'.

I'm not sure how many of the prettier nappies he's seen, but he DID go gooey over the Blueberry SS in Blue Camo, especially when I told him it was a medium and so 'imagine him crawling around in the babylegs and that and a cute tshirt'. I think he's going to be a show off Dad
He seems to see it all as my crazy maternal obsession, much in the same way as he sees the cute but functional clothes...I think he'd have Daniel in white baby gros and vests, plain white terries and wraps if he could choose (but he can't, so he has red babygros with patterns and purple and blue nappies!!!).

I change most nappies but if all nappies are ready and stuffed etc, he usually reaches for a flip, he uses pop ins but thats cos I have loads and the bumgenius. He's really good with them all really, although harder to get the ittis on now with bigger hands and smallish nappies

I just choose what I like, but I have them all ready to go in baskets in the bedroom so all he has to do is look at how they are done up etc and then redo it on her. If they have snaps, I do them up on the right setting so he can't really get it wrong. I probably don't give him enough credit though... he manages just fine when left to his own devices! I don't really involve him with choosing nappies as he isn't that interested, though he'll oooh and ahhh to a satisfactory level when they arrive to keep me happy. I did once let him choose the colour of one, and it was the only nappy we've ever tried that really didn't work for us
