Do you need to use liners in MCN's?

| We don't. I have a box of sposie liners for if/when I ever need to use nappy rash creams on Daniels bum but haven't even needed to open them yet! |

You don't, but some people choose to. I have an unproven theory that liners may help preserve the life of the fleece of the nappy, so I usually use washable ones. Dunno if it's true or not though! -------------  |

I've heard that you can use the flush-able ones - once they start on solids - and its a bit more solid to flush  Just pick up the liner and straight into the loo.------------- http://lilypie.com">

Yep we use flushable liners that I buy online at whatever nappy shop I am buying from at the time! Mostly just use when I know Isla is likely to poo - first clean nap of the day!

I have a box of Jonhson's ones that I am using at the moment due to Josh's nappy rash. But i usually wouldn't use them. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I really don't see the point of liners.
When the baby is exclusively breastfed, you're dealing with liquid that will seep through to the fleece - liner is useless (IMO!) When baby is older and the poop is more solid, it just rolls off the fleece into the toilet - again, no need for liners (IMO!) People always ask me at demos if they need to use liners with Fuzzis or with the new HC naps as we sell flushable and washable liners, and I always tell them no, unless they REALLY want to (i.e. poop-fobic lol) So it's a personal thing, but no you don't NEED to  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Yeah I had heard that you should use them with Fuzzis if you use nappy cream to protect the fleece as well.
There are some bio-degradable ones that eco-store sell. Has anyone used those? -------------

| I use flushable ones I got of trademe (when I remember to put them in) as Pipers poop does not normally just fall off. I just find it so much easier when changing to just upend the whole thing in the loo. |

If you are using a thick barrier cream that could coat the fleece then you should use a liner so that it doesn't clog up the fleece making them water proof. This is the same with any cloth nappy ------------- http://lilypie.com">

We use the blue Johnsons ones and tip poo into toilet and throw out but when he's just wee'd on them we wash them to use again (or at least I try to, not so sure on DH!) ------------- http://lilypie.com">
