Okay Hi Girls (and guys if any)

Iv got 10 peapods.. they have one insert each..
What do people think of peapods.. did they work for you?
How many inserts should i get and which ones worked best or you..

Im thinking of getting these.. but because im a first timer im not sure if they any good

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=111982643

Im also working on getting 12 fuzzi buns from the states as they work out a couple hunded cheaper and DF's grandma is going to bring them over in september when she comes so i figured i would get mediums..

Im wanting to use cloth full time.. but i want slim, trim yet effective.

Whats the best for overnight? That micro stuff or hemp?
Does anyone make thses inserts themselves? Im thinking of getting some material from greenbeans but i cant sew and dont have a machine or overlocker?

Pea pods - I found the ones I got from baby factory the PUL fabric wasn't actually 100% waterproof so I bitched to peapods in aussie and they have sent me replacement ones so I'm not sure if I like them or not.. will see after I try these replacement ones.

For overnight a combo of hemp and microfibre works best for us. We use 2 microfibre inserts and 1-2 hemp ones depending on how long we want it to last.

i highly recommend peapods
i use peapods at night on my 2 without any troubles and have done for 6mths. charli is almost out of the sml size now because they are getting too low in the rise. for night stuffing i use a prefold and the hemp trifold you get with the peapod at that lasts 12-13hrs.

i also have pocket change nappies but wouldn't recommend them. they are ok for daytime but don't last as long as others and i would never use them overnight.
i'd suggest baby harmony nappies (our main stash) over pocket change

for inserts, i love the baby harmony microfibre ones. they last us 3hrs or 4 if i'm lazy   i usually go for 1-2 inserts per nappy

prefolds also make great inserts but are a little bulkier
