That’s right – Going Cloth!!! Who would have thought that I would make it a priority to switch to ‘modern cloth nappy’s with bub number 2! As if I wasn’t going to have enough on my plate with a 2-year-old and a new-born. However much to my surprise and delight it has been one of the best decisions I have made.
My nappy count at the moment is around 30 and that seems to be plenty in these summer months. Although some of the mediums are on there last legs with my little boof! So i’ll be looking forward to getting back in for some newbies soon! My favorites so far have been the itti bitti’s - they are sized and so were on the mediums and large at the moment. The colors are just so cute and its also an added bonus that throughout the day they are a little slimmer then some other MCN.
My collection also include a couple Rumparooz - they are one size pocket nappy’s and they are brilliant as they have a gathered inner line down each side of the nappy so it keeps the poo’s in! They also dry really quick as you take them apart into three sections – outer, liner and booster. They also come in funky prints and colors.
The third brand that I use and love is Bum Genius – they do an organic nappy. It’s great on bubs skin! It’s probably one of my favorite nappy’s so long as you can get over a couple of little hurdles with it. It is a one size nappy but the inner is stitched in – it sort of has three separate layers so it takes the longest to dry. It’s also important to make sure all the inner is tucked in when putting it on bub other wise it will leak a small amount. Also because it’s an organic material it does discolor a fraction and it does have a small smell once it’s used. Having said all of this it’s probably still my favorite nappy.
The latest nappy that i have purchased is the twinkle lily night nappy – its in the wash at the minute and i cannot wait to get in and try it! It looks DELUXE! http://www.twinklelily.com.au/
The best advice I could give you is to head to http://www.booloobabe.com.au/ and arrange a catch up with Sam in Perth or Linda in Geelong (vic) and get your hands on approach to ‘going cloth’ with your own nappy consultant. It’s awesome being able to ask all the questions you have, and to see the nappy’s all up close so that you can choose the right nappy for your Bubba, lets face it those chubby little thighs come in all shapes and sizes 
They stock a massive range of nappies and nappy products. If your anything like me i had a tonne of questions from which nappy to use for day/night to the best way to wash and dry them. You won’t regret your call to booloobabe!!!
