Less bulky night nappy

purple_socks · Mar 19th, 2010, 16:09 PM

So far we've converted fully to cloth during the day and r working up to full night usage (still dont have enough nappies in my stash so i wanna build on the night nappies i own) i've just put LO to bed in a huggles with little lamb nightime booster and it looks like a joke!! He is all bottom!! i can't even get a grow or vest on him!

i wanna try some different night nappies but what does everyone think would b best? Lo is a heavy wetter but i want something less bulky yet something that will last 12+ hours? is this too much to ask for?

r the WNNN bulky? i've heard good things abt them

oh my gosh huggles are mahoosive aren't they??

We use bumgenius V3's with both inserts and an extra microfibre cloth and have no problems.

Holden's landing bedbugs are very popular at the moment with woolens (such as the Disana pull on pants are hot at the mo) but they are that bit more expensive.

We have used WNNN and now use Bedbugs, I would say both are similar in bulk, maybe bedbugs are a little less as we had to pad the WNNNs out a bit more, but either way for Freya to go 12 hours in one nappy we have to add SO much boosting to it her bum is huuuge. Pop Ins were even bigger though, but then the fit wasn't as good for us, so maybe that made them bigger.

I find Side Snap nappies less bulky at night, and the more bamboo/hemp we use and the less cotton/microfibre the less bulk there is.

We also use Disana pull on woolies, they work fantastically for us.

to just use the woolies at night, how many pairs would you suggest to have ?

sugarpuff · Mar 19th, 2010, 16:23 PM

obviously i know you need a nappy underneath

princessellie · Mar 19th, 2010, 16:24 PM

id say at least 4, they take a while to dry

We only have one pair of Disanas at the moment, they only get damp at night when lanolised and I just leave them to air dry in the day. I have another pair on the way though as you need a back up for when they are washing/lanolising (only done every month or so).

they only get damp? after a full night? ooh i thought for sure theyd be rank by morning haha
