i love swaddlebees, they are a lot trimmer thru the crotch tho and not recommended for heavy wetters. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

Ann the pics you are looking for are in the sell and exchange forum.
Personally my vote is for anything with snaps and not velcro, my guess is that they will last longer. -------------  |

swaddlebees are great nappies, nice and trim....however, if you do have a heavywetter they will be no good. i had some for jack and had to sell them because they always leaked
definately go for snaps though because it doesn't take them long to figure out velcro  ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

Some people really like it, gives a good fit.
You might just have to put a domed singlet over top when he figures out the velcro

i have both here and love the velcro. for a while toby would take them off but i just put them on backwards and he never takes them off if he is wearing something over the top. some clever kids can undo snaps too tho. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

More than happy to make some naps for you Ann, I've pmd you. I prefer velcro to snaps, more daddy friendly I've found. I love bum genious because they're adjustable so one nappy will fit both girls, plus they seem to be very absorbant while still slim. -------------
