I was talking with a friend last night at band and her SIL is just about to give birth and is looking at getting some of these. She said that her SIL was looking at getting some that snap instead of velcro. What brand is this?? Does anyone know??

cheek boutique are a OSFA that has snaps... i'm sure there are others too...

cute tooshies do a one size fitted that has snaps...

and happy heiny adjust with snaps but do up with velcro...   haute pockets come in velcro or snaps but the rise is adjusted by snaps on both sorts.

also wahmies do a one size pocket...

My friend Bronnie has haute OSFA. I've tried them once and disliked them.

I think the better brands of OSFA are velcro ones. She could always get velcro and then get some snaps added later if her bubba figures out the velcro?

My sister uses Mommy's Touch OSFA with poppers. TBH - they seem a bit of a faff to me, especially the new 'clean touch' pockets that are open-ended. They're awkward to stuff and my sister said that the inserts never come out in the wash properly like they're supposed to.

Blueberry Diapers in the USA make a OSFA nappy with poppers. I haven't used them myself but know of a few friends in the UK that use them and they seem to have a good reputation.

Also Swaddlebees now do a one-size pocket with poppers, called an Econappi - don't think you can get them in NZ but you can always get them shipped out.

There's also Baby Beehinds fitted nappies that come in hemp or bamboo. The bamboo ones are supposed to be fab & trim and snap down great on little ones. They're sold through Busy Behinds or you can order directly from Baby Beehinds in Aussie.

Oh, and Baby Kangas! They used to be sold at Snazzipants but not sure if they still do them.

Yeah there are heaps of OSFA's out there but most have velcro instead of snaps to do them up.

Becks - I think you might have a problem

We should start up our own C.N.A.A (Cloth Nappy Addicts Anonymous

I will let you know, and my reason for being up that early (I was actually up at 4) was I had to play at dawn service in Feilding and we left home at 5.15am and have only just got home from doing the last service. I had to do 3 this morning.
