Wash your paper nappy liners that have just been wet once you start using them but more OS is fleece liners if you can face it. Have fun and best of luck.

I've been given loads of disposible liners off freecycle so I think I'll use them for catching poo! It was free after all :rotfl:

I was thinking of using a paper liner for poo catching but a fleece liner underneath as a booster as I've heard it helps to keep them dryer? Not sure if this will work but I'll give it a whirl.

I've had several children in cloth nappies.. if you have specific questions fire away!! I've used prefolds, shaped, all-in-ones and even terry squares.. I have a couple you can have if you'd like.. and wraps.. drop me a PM and we'll sort it!.. Given that you already have the basics.. you should have it pretty much all covered.. breastfeeding is free.. so if formula will be an issue it might be worth at least considering if you aren't already.

Last time I wasn't able to breastfeed, this time I am really hoping that it will be ok as we could do without the £6 a tin formula costs :eek: But we'll just have to see. I got very upset about it last time, but if your boobs don't work, they don't work! There's not a lot I can do about it.

I've sent you a PM about the nappies - thanks very much!

If you have a surestart near you they should have some breast feeding peer supporters who might have some advice to offer.. they usually have 20 times MORE teaching time than midwives and have the benefit of experience.. guess what I did in a former life?! lol

I'm just after emptying a box in any direction.. all in the name of decluttering!!
