Oh bless her. I think if I had a little one I'd probably buy a Baby Beehind to start with for nights as they look so gorgeous and and would be great with a wool soaker overtop. Nice & trim too!

If you have a look at one of the other threads (maybe about 'fluffy post'?) there is a picture of Seb looking gorgeous in a Beehind with a Designer Bums Merino cover

i've found that BKT (burley knit terry) to be a really good absorbent material... so maybe some boosters in that would help.]]> Mon, 31 Mar 2008 11:07:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=340029&title=bamboo#340029 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=339956&title=bamboo#339956 Author: kiwivic

I've read good things about Baby Beeehinds, which are a bamboo fitted nappy. I'm pretty sure they'd require extra boosting for overnight but they looks trim & comfortable!

I like bamboo too. I have a tweedles bamboo insert and find it really good. It did take quite a few washes to reach full potential though! I like it because its not bulky, and I have a trifold, which dries quite quickly. I want more!!]]> Sun, 30 Mar 2008 08:40:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=339098&title=bamboo#339098 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338633&title=bamboo#338633 Author: kiwivic

You can get bamboo trifolds on TM.

I just love bamboo. I believe it absorbs slower than microfibre but faster than hemp and is fast enough for Joshie. I'd be quite happy to use only bamboo.]]> Sat, 29 Mar 2008 20:12:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338558&title=bamboo#338558 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338535&title=bamboo#338535 Author: Maya

I had some Tweedle bamboo inserts but sold them coz I didn't find them any better than any of my other inserts.

I am keen to try a bamboo peapod on baby tho.]]> Sat, 29 Mar 2008 19:59:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338535&title=bamboo#338535 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338391&title=bamboo#338391 Author: AliaDawn

I never found that bamboo absorbed much more than hemp.. as I tried that on my mega pee'er at night and it made no difference on him. But the drying time is soo much longer in our experience.]]> Sat, 29 Mar 2008 14:52:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338332&title=bamboo#338332 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338316&title=bamboo#338316 Author: AliaDawn

They absorb heaps (like hemp) and as such take ages to dry, and take a fair few washes to reach a good absorbancy, but they absorb a fair bit faster than hemp I think. Not as quickly as m/fibre, but enough to use on it's own.]]> Sat, 29 Mar 2008 14:31:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338316&title=bamboo#338316 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338230&title=bamboo#338230 Author: monster

I've got bamboo and know that they're getting better and better over time (lasting longer) and they take a long time to dry. Not sure about absorbancy speed though.]]> Sat, 29 Mar 2008 11:24:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338230&title=bamboo#338230 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15771&PID=338196&title=bamboo#338196 Author: Rachael21

I just got a couple of bamboo inserts yay but I'm not sure what the deal is with bamboo. Is it like hemp and really absorbant but quite slow? or is it like MF and fast to absorb but can't hold as much?
