So I am still very SLOWLY getting my head around liners,inserts and boosters and even tried a couple on Kaleb this morning - so now just want to know:
1. Does a booster go on top of an insert or underneath? 2. What are doublers? (Are they another name for booster?) 3. What is the fabric order for inside a pocket? Or rather which fabric/s should not be at the top? Thanks! |

1) I usually put the booster on top of the insert.
2) Not sure what a doubler is to be honest! 3) I don't think it matters too much about the order that the fabric of any insert goes in, but some of the other ladies might have more details. |

I put microfibre on top of hemp so the hemp layer is closer to the waterproof material I find it absorbs better in this order as hemp takes longer to soak in the moisture. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  Was danni-chick Mum to James My Angel 28/07/08 |

1. doesn't matter, but when you go to the larger size inserts it's easier to stuff the nappy with the smaller sized booster/doubler on the top 2. Doublers = boosters. 3. If using microfibre and hemp I would put the MF at the top at this absorbs more quickly. Hope that helps  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I always stick my boosters on the bottom, don't know why, just always have.
And like the others said, hemp/bamboo on the bottom with microfibre on top as it absorbs more quickly. -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)
