I'm certainly not a teen mum (ARGH 31 in a couple of weeks )

We use a mix of Fuzzis and Honey Child. I can probably count on my hands the amount of times I've actually touched a used insert

Just grab the front wings by the tips and shake the insert out into your bucket. When the bucket is full, tip that into the washing machine

We used the same nappies for day and night (Caitlin is toilet trained now except nights). That's what I loved the most about pockets, you just add more absorbency when you need it. The inserts are the cheap part, much better than buying a bunch of different nappies for different times of the day ]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 22:08:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=432028&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#432028 <![CDATA[How many other mums use washables? : I have a couple of Monkey Doodlez,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431930&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431930 Author: Maya

There are heaps of us on here. I use Fuzzi's, the ones my mum made me and Foxybots. Love them. We have just done a week of sposies as we have just moved house and I am so glad to get them back out again.

We use cloth here too - all sorts! Fuzzibunz mostly, I'm a pocket nappy fan. I also have Baby Harmony, Swaddlebees, Drybees, some home made pockets as well. Fitted nappies I like cutibums but am considering an itti bitti d'lish after all the rave reviews about it.

Good on you for finding the cloth love - it is great hey! ]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 18:12:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431836&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431836 <![CDATA[How many other mums use washables? : i find kushies pretty good, but...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431791&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431791 Author: sophie&jo

There's a section on ohbaby all about cloth naps.

I'm not a teen mum but I'm 23 so I'm not old . I've tried sooooo many brands its just not funny! And now I make my own range

I'm not a fan of kushies or peapods. There's so many options out there these days if you have a look around on the net ]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:38:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431770&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431770 <![CDATA[How many other mums use washables? : Heaps of us - And I&#039;m still...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431758&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431758 Author: AliaDawn

Heaps of us - And I'm still a teenager, just.

My favorites are Wigglebums, Bitti D'lish, Designerbums and Busy Beehinds.

Kushies get pretty terrible reviews, and peapods very mixed ones. Their (kushies) only real benefit is they are easy to find.]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:18:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431758&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431758 <![CDATA[How many other mums use washables? : Oh you have to buy at least on...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431756&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431756 Author: cuppatea

Oh you have to buy at least on bitty d'lish, they are awesome and super cute.
Spencer is in cloth in day but sadly in disposables at night, he has started tummy sleeping and peeing through everything that I have. I am just selling some of my old nappies to buy something new to try, am thinking maybe a fitted.
For day we have mommys touch (ok but pretty basic), bum genius (which I adore) and our new favourite the bitty d'lish (I have three, even though I so didn't need three more nappies).
I'm hoping to put the new baby into all bitty d'lish, just waiting to find out what flavour we are having so I select colours ]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:17:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431756&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431756 <![CDATA[How many other mums use washables? : Serenity wrote:I&#039;m not...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431754&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431754 Author: sophie&jo

Hiya all

I have just made the switch to use washables instead of disposables, and im loving it.

I was wondering how many other mums out there use washables, and what brand do you use? What do you use for night nappies etc?

Im using Kushies, as ive tried Peapods, and they leak a little too much for me & i dont like the idea of handling inserts, boosters etc if i dont have to.

Also how many other teenage mums use em?]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:05:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18848&PID=431747&title=how-many-other-mums-use-washables#431747
