What did you use?
Im assuming prefolds and covers? How long did these last? What did you use next? I need the cheapest options possible. Thanks ------------- ~ Mummy to a beautiful girl ~ |

We used NapNaps (fitteds) on Jack from the day he came home from hospital and had no problems with leaking etc. However they were quite bulky on his little bottom.
I have bought some Real Nappies (prefolds) off TM to start with for this baby and will then move to the NapNaps in a couple of month or so (I assume) ------------- Lindsey

I just bought a bunch of preloved newborn nappies off TM & TNN. I paid between $5-10 each and most of them were still in excellent condition! I got to try out a whole bunch of different styles & brands for a fraction of the price of buying new. And because we only used them for 4-6wks (until he fitted his med ittis) they were still in great condition to resell again

Thats what i was thinking of doing, buying prefolds and covers off trade me, and then getting 18 ittis and using them full time. I also have 3 fuzzis here so can stuff them for overnight that i used for Kylah. ------------- ~ Mummy to a beautiful girl ~ |
