We received the brand new super absorbent Honey Child inserts yesterday, so last night I decided to give them the ultimate test!
I put just one large insert in her HC nappy from 4pm to 7pm (this is when she wets the most). The insert worked great and her bum was totally dry! She usually has 1 x large and 1 x small of the old Fuzzi inserts and even that only lasted a couple of hours. For bedtime I put 2 of the new inserts in Caitlin’s HC nappy and when she woke up this morning (13 hours later) my super pee’r had a dry bum again! And the inserts could still take more pee! I couldn’t believe how tiny she looked in her PJs, she’s usually got a great big bubble butt lol I used to put 2 large inserts and 1 small insert in her Fuzzi and that was only just enough but she has been known to over flow when the inserts were full 
If anyone else needs some super absorbent inserts for their mega pee’r let me know. These are only $7 each (HEAPS cheaper than the hemp super soakers I was looking at getting off TM) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Hey Toni, how do they work so well? Just curious if they are more layers or more absorbant material. |

There's no hemp, just microfibre
I think they are just designed better, I can only feel 3 layers but they definitely feel thicker than the FB inserts and last a lot longer. Here's the blurb Head Office sent us Agents Some facts about the new boosters and inserts. They are made in Korea and not China They are 25% more absorbent than the old Fuzzi Bunz inserts and boosters They are plush and thirsty and don’t catch on your hand. With the Honey Child System you should not need as many extra inserts and boosters. Each Honey Child Preset Package comes with an extra insert. (6 nappies and 7 inserts) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Cool... so maybe the fibres are longer so absorb more...? it will forever remain a mystery... unless I see one of course. |

OMG after so many different types of inserts, different combos and I have finally found something that will contain his super pee'ing. These new absorbant inserts are AMAZING!!!!! I brought 6yesterday at the parent and child show after seeing this post and I used 2inserts in a pocket and Alize didnt wet thru Woohoo, He had the nappy on for 4hrs and no leaks. Highly recommend these for super pee'ers. I loved them so much I brought 4more today ------------- http://lilypie.com">

good luck Kels - let us know how you get on. I'm still only using 2 new inserts for bedtime even after she goes swimming on Sundays (she tries to drink half the pool  )------------- http://lilypie.com">

I will and again these are by far the most absorbant inserts I have tried. Highly highly recommend them and thankyou Toni for posting about them or I may have never even brought them thinking they would be the same as the large fuzzi inserts I brought. I use 2 of them per pocket and he wets thru within 2hrs so I have to use a booster as well just to get up to 3hrs out of them. Gone are those days now with my new inserts..yippee!!!!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Our first one of these arrived today! So soft! Had anyone tried the nuture contour inserts? How do these compare to those? We use the contours and they last a good 3 hours (5 in the middle of the day as she basically doesn't wet at all). Are these HC ones as good as contours? ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

I have 3 of the cotour inserts and these HC ones are way better!!! I still had leaks with the contour inserts even when using a booster. I am trialling different compos with these new HC inserts and so far I can use one insert and a booster and havent had a leak. My boy is a heavy wetter so these are a godsend to me!!! BTW Toni, I tried 2inserts for bedtime last night and WOOHOO no leaks and you are so right still room for more wetting. I am sooo tempted to get rid of all my other inserts and just change to the new HC ones. I have 10 HC so thats a start ------------- http://lilypie.com">

So you reckon 1 HC insert on its own lasts longer than a contour? I'm curious but in saying that the contours work brilliantly for us so I probably wouldn't change anyway.
Kels...how many inserts do you have??? I have 13 in total. ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

Hey, I got my inserts yesterday, I tried one overnight with a hemp as well. We did have one small leak but I had left him a little bit longer than I normally do (13hours). I am gonna try just using the two HC ones together tonight and see how that goes. I am very impressed already, I have been using huggies at night as I couldn't get anything else to work reliably and he has wet through those a few times
How much do the medium and large inserts cost? -------------

What size is your HC insert cuppatea? I was using huggies at night too as I just couldnt find anything that worked for me and I was sick of changing sheet, strippping clothes etc in the middle of the night. Goodluck for the 2 inserts tonight. Fiona I have no idea how many inserts I own ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I just have two small ones at the moment and they fit quite nicely into my mummies touch one size. Unfortunately my inserts didn't dry in time so will have to wait till tomorrow to try them.-------------

| I've ordered a couple of these to see how good they are because this morning Daniel had a small leak and that was with a fuzzi insert, a peapod insert and 2 hemp inserts!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't really stuff much more into his nappies! |

| Well we tried 2 HC inserts last night, there was still a lil leak this morning, but not as big as the leak from all the other crap I was putting in his night time nappy. So will try a different combination tonight. |

Is Daniel in a small nappy still? Perhaps you might need to upsize to a medium for his night nappy? The inserts for mediums and up are bigger ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Nope he's in a medium at night  so he soaked through 2 of the large inserts. And they were well and truely soaked!

far out those 2 are usually fine for Caitlin.
Perhaps try 3 (or more) then? You can fit heaps into a HC ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Nah I'll just add a hemp insert or two to it cause they are far trimmer.
And no offence or nothing and I'm sure they are great nappies but I'm not willing to pay $30 for a "plain" normal looking nappy

fair enough... but you're paying $30 for the performance of the nappy not just the looks.
I've spent $40 on a Baby Harmony nappy just for looks (was totally custom made with diamontes on  ) and it perfoms ok but is only for day time use.
If you want a "workhorse" nappy that will last more than 1 child you've got to pay for the investment ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Yes and no.. Some of my cheaper nappies show less "wear and tear" and the elastic is holding up better than my more expensive nappies |

I use 2HC inserts and a peapod insert for night time use with no leaks. Maybe you could put a booster in as well. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
