SIO or AIO?

Personally I prefer the AIO to the SIO mainly because I didn't like the way the inserts of the SIO sat at the back of the one I had.

My hubby loves the AIO nappies

The SIO are easy to figure because the snaps are colour coded

You should hear my hubby curse when putting nappies on! You would have thought that after 3 years of using them, he would get it but he doesn't!

I know right! He is a strange one my hubby lol

I've just bought a SIO, and I don't really understand how it all fits together. I may be overthinking this... so any advice would be greatly appreciated

I can snap it all together. But does then the big bit just fold into three and go underneath the hourglass shaped bit (yellow snaps) so that they sit in the nappy just on top of each other? Don't they move around? Do you always use both layers, so it's effectively 4 layers in the nappy? If you use a mini booster as well would you use it with the big/fold-in-three layer? Or just with the hourglass bit unless you have a really heavy wetter or overnight?

I thought there would be instructions on the itti website, but I can't seem to find any. Maybe it's meant to be foolproof

Is it enough for overnight? At the moment I'm using pre-folds and changing after and before naps... so about every 1.5-2 hours. I'm hoping the itti will last a little longer!

Thanks for that! I knew it must fit - it just didn't make sense when I looked at it.

Is the main difference between a bitti boo and the other itti's the stuff they are made out of? I mean is the bamboo just more absorbant? I'm not sure why the bitti boo's aren't waterproof - I guess I figured they'd use the same fabric for the outer and have a really fantastic absorbant nappy! That's why I didn't buy them - I figured it was better to not need the separate cover!

At the moment the lad is pooing every 2-3 days, so it's pretty straightforward there. And we're using disposables overnight. But since he doesn't usually sleep more than 4-5 hours in a go yet the itti might do the job if I use the booster.

Sorry to threadjack - just figured since people were talking about the itti's it was a good chance to ask some questions.

You could also look at the Cushie Tushies all in one range. Personally I have found them to be a lot more absorbent than an Itti and suitable for bigger babies. The booster does snap in and there is an extra mini booster with the couture giving you up to 8 layers of bamboo. Ideal for overnight.
