Topic: Whats your favourite AIO? Posted: 13 November 2009 at 8:26am |
I have been using snazzipants AIO's for about 6 months and I love them. Unfortunately Ava rips the velcro open every time the nappy goes on and that game is getting pretty old
I have also sewn a whole bunch of nappies but now I'm back at work I have limited time for sewing and need to buy the next size up in nappies. I have used itti bitti's (didn't like the fit much) and want some feedback from the OB ladies on which AIO's they like best and why. We will be buying snaps this time and even though I find them a pain, it's better than poos all over the place when she rips the nappy off.
TIA

Sorry I can't help then, coz I love itti bitti's. There sewn in AIO'S I find great. Just wanted to say though, that It did take me awhile to get used to their fit, I was used to using big pockets for so long. When I first got my ittis I didn't like them, but stuck with them, and now love them. Also, as bubs gets older, and longer and leaner, I would imagine the fit would be better.

I still like 'my' ittis too. We used a snazzi AIO when he was little but found them to be not absorbent enough as he grew. Ditto Monkey Doodlez (although they're velcro too, so you'd have the same problem!).
I quite like our Dream Eze AIO (from mother's instinct) although it doesn't have a stay dry layer (you could fix that with a microfleece liner if that's important to you). I've also been wanting to try the Baby Beehinds Magic-all Pocket in One or the new Ecobubs AIO so if you try either of those please report back on how they are!
I was going to suggest the Swaddlebees pocket AIO but doesn't look like you can get them in NZ any more.

I've been using snazzi's with a booster and haven't had too many leaks. Thanks for the suggestions, will go and do some "research"

Ooh yes please!
Do you know much about the Berry Plush nappies on the snazzipants website? They look like itti's but am wondering about the fit

I've got a couple you're welcome to try out  They're quite different to itti bittis.
I'll PM you and we can organise a meetup next week some time!

i like bubblebubs but they are velcro too - very strong velcro tho. I found the kids never took off their nappies if they had pants over the top tho.

I like my Dream-Eze AIO too, very absorbent for a AIO, which is great for my extreme heavy wetter! Might have to have a squizz at the Ecobubs and Baby Beehinds naps you mentioned Weegee, even though I have no money to buy them!

Yeah bubblebubs were my faves as well but they are velcro.
ETA berry plush are quite nice and different from ittis. The fit didn't work for us but seperately they work really well as a cover and an insert for pockets.

I'm waiting for someone to try out the new Ecobubs AIO to tell us what it's like  Love their pocket night nappy so would be interesting to see how their AIO does.
