I have been looking around for a while, and was tossing up between paying $5 shipping for a purple zebra striped foxybot, risking a medium blue camo as well to make the shipping worth it or getting a couple of tweedles first, and I found this:

$30 but OMG I fell in love... and sadly it's medium so I hope my little guy doesn't grow for a while! he's 10.5kg at 17months... hasn't grown more than 200grams since 12months.
Now I am impatiently awaiting it's arrival. And I am SO tempted to get the small... just in case... but DF would absolutely kill me, and it's probably a bad idea to get two dif size nappies in the same print. Sadly they don't have anymore fabric in this print

yes, it's Wigglebums... they only had 2 nappies in that print, 1 small, 1 medium, and no fabric for sale so I don't know if there's any more where it came from.

Oh my goodness, that is possibly the most stylish nappy I've ever seen! Good choice - I love it!! Just as well they don't have it in large, it might have been too hard to resist!

Claire (from Wigglebums) was at my place last night and I told her how excited you were about her nappies - she was so pleased

Awesome I am so pleased at this print - I don't think I'll care if it leaks or anything! It's nice to see something so different Although from what I've seen of reviews they're apparently a great nappy, so no worries there

Got our Wigglebums, washed it and tried it on Seb today - very cute! Unfortunately he decided to soil it 20 mins later, but hey what can you do.
Now just waiting on my Tweedles and Foxybots

How was the fit?

It isn't bad - fits on the 2nd to last snap so should have a bit of room there, the waist is a little loose on that setting, but then his sposies are the same. It's a nice snug fit around his thighs though
We haven't been brave enough to put him in with only one (organic brushed cotton) insert yet, but even so I'm surprised at how trim it is (he's worn it again... and repeat performance with the soiling LOL) thankfully it drys really fast. We should get those tweedles in the mail in the next couple of days, and maybe the foxybot I ordered So will be in full gear soon.

hehe I'm hoping to find some time this week to make some more up
I've got another cool animal print, retro dot - the blue latte one and also another retro dot one thats blue/lime/yellow which is super cute. Also got argyle print too. That's the highlights anyway

Sounds like that new nappy is going to fit him for a while cause his thighs will thin about before his waist increases. Briona can still fit a medium in the day.

Yay! Lasted 2 hours, took it off him to check how well it did, and both inserts were wet through in the front, but only in a very small patch. I think I have the opposite of some - A light wetter. Lol. His dad thinks it's fine to leave him in a wet sposie all day because it doesn't leak... doesn't seem to realise it's not so great for the poor little guy's skin. (not that he ever gets rashes)

Ooooh, how exciting!! I can't wait to see the argyle print - I'd love one of those!! And a blue latte as well! Your minky fabrics seem silimar to those used by Blueberry Diapers in the USA - except way cheaper thankfully!
