Just wondering what nappies people like best? i have tried a few kinds- really liking my itti aios and sios at the moment but i have a heap of inserts for pocket nappies and would like to give a pocket nappy a go- didnt like the baby cheeks tho and i have a few home made ones that are good but are getting a bit past it.
Can anyone recommend a good pocket nappy? -------------

I love fuzzibunz! Beautiful colours, and they fit perfectly (once I figured out what size to put my girl in).
I hated babycheeks with a passion. I like my ecobubs pockets - I'm supposed to use them just for nights, but that seems a waste of a great quality nappy. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

I agree with FreeSpirit,  Fuzzibunz and Ecobubs, also our Baby Harmony as well tho not sure you can still get those. We also use our ecobubs during the day here too. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  DD 1999 DS 2003 DS 2006 DD 2009 |

I also love Ecobubs! We use the smalls during the day and mediums at night - I wish I had more, but make do with homemade pockets most of the time.
I have a couple of Itti Bittis, but I don't really see what everyone likes about them. Even my homemade pockets seem to last longer... |

I like my ecobubs woollens for night times, and Hollie's in yoyo's during the day. Expensive but brilliant, and obviously cheaper if you already have the inserts. -------------  http://lilypie.com"> |

We use itt's AIO's, fuzzi buns, honey child and ecobubs day and their wool pockets. I love the side snaps. But hate that they are a bit bulky. I'd have to say I love itti's at the moment. But fuzzi's new style nappies are my fav pockets. ------------- Sarah Mum to, Boy 07/2008, Girl 03/2010, Boy 05/2012, Angel  07/08/2014

I actually really like my two peapods - but they don't get rave reviews from most people - I've found they fit great and never had any leakage issues ... I have Teyla in a small, and she's got SUPER fat thighs! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Maybe the chubby thighs are the key? I've found OSFA nappies don't work so well on Cooper as they gape around his legs - I don't even think his legs are even that skinny either! ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Hi, I brought a few groovybunz nappies from trademe. Awesome nappies, they remind of fuzzi bunz. (ive got a few of them as well). Groovybunz so much cheaper!

Wow, goes to show how different people's preferences are, I started with Kushies classics and hate them with a passion 
Baby Harmony got sold and are being made again under the label 'In a pear tree' - she's only just getting them off the ground but I understand they will be sold through TradeMe so if you love these nappies keep an eye out
I only have one Boon Nappy but it's a great pattern. My actual favourites change all the time but my current faves are a couple of AIOs made to the same pattern as 'Baby Blush' pockets which you can get through The Nappy Bootique. Of course itti bitti's are great (I prefer the SIOs) but sometimes I like them and sometimes I don't depending on sizing, when you're between snap settings they can be a PITA. -------------

I have a few pop ins- ppl have been saying they are great for nights but iv had leaks both times iv tried at nights from the velcro tab area- not sure why, i love them for day use tho, has any one else had this prob with them?
I purchased a ecobub wool pocket- first night was dry- second had a leak from one of the legs, not too sure y- will try it again. I think i will get a few fuzzibunz to try out- seem to be a lot of ppl recommending them. -------------

| If you want to try a nappy like fuzzi bunz (better) try groovybunz.(trademe) They are very good. Had no problems with them. ANd soooo much cheaper. |

Just came back to this thread cos I realised I forgot my 'old' favourites (JJ seems to react to microfleece so I had to retire some of his nappies). My absolute favourites were Bib and Tucker, and I'll put in another vote for Ecobubs as well.
Jennie, are you the person who makes groovybunz? Just noticed all three of your posts on this forum so far have been recommending them. Otherwise I guess you're really taken with them -------------

I have the plain coloured boon nappies they are great.
and the boosters work well as well at nights. if you like the patterned ones get them. I am using them fulltime and I love them. easy to look after. and I am very lazy. I cant believe that cloth nappies could be easy. also got liners for them as well different source and I am going sew some more soon.

We use nap naps and they are great. They don't seem to be very popular/common - not sure why.
They are a one size fits all and , we have never had any problems with the fit or leaks, and neither do other we know who use them. We started using them on DS when he was about 3 weeks old. I have bought a few ittis as well, mainly because the nap naps need a cover as well and they were extremely bulky when DS was a newborn. I thought the ittis would be easier and allow him to fit his clothes for longer(being less bulky). However, like someone else mentioned I have failed to understand why others rave so much about them as we have constant leaks and they don't last very long at all. Just my two cents worth! |

I have yoyo nappies, peapods and ittis. I like them all, but my ittis are by far my favs. So cute and soft and much less bulky than the others. So far, no leaks either. Now I just can't wait to get more -------------
