not that often. I've done it once in 1  year.

krisha... I think I was doing it once every few months or so.

What you can do to check is run some water onto the fleece and see if it pools or is absorbed straight through the fleece.

If it pools then it's a build up issue that can be resolved (for a while) by stripping... if it absorbs through then it might be a sizing issue or absorbency issue (among other things!) that is causing leaks.

Hope that helps! And as far as recommendations go.... a hire kit?? That might help suss out what sort of system and brands work best for you. there are heaps of cute nappies around the place. By the time you have your babe you'll be an expert!

Personally, I prefer to get 3-4hrs out out of my nappies. At about your son's age I found my nappies were only lasting around 2hrs so I started adding a booster to get us back to 3-4hrs of absorbency.
