 Topic: Night-time first-time
Posted: 31 July 2008 at 7:02pm |
I'm scared!! I have just put Luke down to bed in a cloth nappy... He has never worn cloth at night, so will be interesting to see how he goes.
I put in a hemp/mfibre foxybots trifold, a hemp booster (3 layers) and a fuzzis mfibre insert... Does it sound like enough?
Oh yeah all wrapped inside an ecobubs pocket.

Possibly is he a heavy wetter?? If he is then you may need somemore hemp.

At Luke's age that would have been fine for Leo. But wetting got heavier and heavier over time. The Nix-Kidz hemp flats are great for boosting pockets overnight. You end up with 6 layers of hemp - I used one with a Foxybots mf/hemp trifold on top for Leo until he was around 18mths, then we had to switch to a fitted & cover.

UPDATE:
The first night was alright, he lasted until 5am (not sure it woke him or not) but was leaking alittle round the edges.
Last night I stuffed it with a foxybots trifold, a peapods trifold and the ecobubs mf and it was great!! He lasted all night and there was still room to spare I reckon!!
Am stoked that it worked, so now I need to decide if I need to buy another, as I usually only wash my nappies every second day...

YAY 
I have 2 night naps for DS as I wash every other day too - although not good when he decides to poo on the 2nd night once I have already got him ready for bed and we were on our last night nappy

Yay I'm sooo glad it worked after only 2 experiments! It took us ages to find a combo that worked! 
We have 3 night time naps. Sometimes I wash every 2nd day so at least I've always got one, usually two dried.. just in case

Yay for you!
We have 2 night nappies (Designer Bums hemp fitteds with bamboo booster) plus one back up (Baby Beehind Hemp OSFA boosted with a Itti Bitti Bamboo trifold & mf booster). We wash every 1-2 days so 3 is enough (I say 'we' as I'm actually lucky enough to have a husband that does the washing too! ).
