im a cloth user with the odd pack of disposables when its not practicle for cloth (however no offence to onlyroz but if u use cloth please dont buy kooshies, they always leave people a little deflated on cloth nappies as they rnt very good in comparison to most). I like the lidl ones when i need to and a variety of cloth the bulk of the time

Would echo cloth as an honestly easy, pleasant option (would you believe they do not smell- soggy disposeables stink, but wet terry nappies are pleasant to change- poo smells of poo what ever you use:rotfl: ).
Did use kooshies AIO for the childminder for an older baby/toddler but they are not a good option as a starter nappy and will put disp users off. Stuffable fleece nappies are a good "transition" choice (you put the pad- terry or what ever inside the soft fleece outer and then it is ready to use exactly as a disp).
Don't buy a "birth to potty" set either as no one cloth nappy/style is going to really work "the best" at every age.
TRy a couple of cloth nappies (maybe second hand) and see what you think, you'll get most of your money back selling on anyway!0 -

my dd is a huggies natural fit girl, the tesco ones brought her out in a terrible rash all round the tummy and legs where the cuffs are and pampers gave her nappy rash. she is really skinny and at 19 months still in 9-12 month bottoms! she has no bum at all and all the others brands fall down!0

just tried asda ones and they leaked even though my son was ill and not weeing half so much, so I will be off to get boots own again...!0

I like Asda own brand and Pampers baby dry/active fit. I find both are excellent and hold a lot, they do keep los bum quite dry too :rotfl:
I find Tesco, superfit purple ones? are rubbish! They don't hold a lot :eek: they leak and the sizes are smaller than the equivalent Asda/Pampers sizes. I don't like Huggies either, same leaking problems! I've tried different sizes from Huggies and these are all terrible!The £2.00 Coin Savers Club = approx £22.00 :rolleyes: :j.. The 20p Savers Club = £17.80.

I found that I needed to swap and change brands/types of nappies quite oftn with both of my children at different stages. What suits one child may not suit another.
I currently use the Tesco supperfit & think they are fab!Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach that person touse the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.:D0 -
hi,
all my 3 girls have had pampers babydry, did once try huggies, but no good. my baby is 13 months, and i would have loved to used reusable nappies, but its the outlay. i know you would pay more in long run for disposables. its really a personal/financial desicion i think. whatever works for you.0 -
Wow, I guess it's a case of trying them all out as it seems it depends on the baby.
I was hoping I wouldn't have to....!
I don't have the courage to do the reusable thing. I remember wearing them with the big scary safety pin on the side! (I know they don't have the pin anymore but still)
I did read that Tesco nappies won best nappy one year (even beat the big brands like Pampers) but I couldn't remember if it was Purple one (Superfit) or Yellow pack (Baby Dry Essentials)."fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts." (Bertrand Russell)0 -
Morrisons ones are the only disposables we don't have problems with.
I prefer the terries. Quick fold into a pad with a motherease rikki wrap (just velcro) - NEVER leaks. But disposables better for long periods like night time.
I found that some disposables leaked EVERY time, some gave him nappy rash, some tore too often...the Morrisons ones have been pretty reliable.May all your dots fall silently to the ground.0
