I did intend on using towelling nappies for my youngest, but when it got to the Winter of 2008, I just couldn't keep up with the washing.   I did start using Woolworths Select nappies but then they had Babylove nappies on sale quite frequently at Woolworths so I have continued to buy them and have managed to have plenty left so I've only had to buy them when there is a sale on.

I find that by a certain age, most nappies will leak occasionally, they just need to be changed more.  And for night time, the best thing to do is put a pair of towelling training pants or something similar over the nappy for extra absorbancy.  Either that, or change them once during the night, but this doesn't always work for everyone as there can be a problem getting your child back to sleep.

We use huggies when we have spare money for the same reasons as above, plus they feel softer.

That is until they changed the make of the nappy to include the "new wetness liner"................... I was soooo cranky as the absorbency level dropped dramatically! My son constantly leaked in the new ones, even when the nappy was hardly wet! You still cant beat Huggies for fit but i now use Mamia nappies from aldi (which i swore i would never do) but they are really absorbent! My son has never leaked in them!

I have tried every nappy since i stopped using huggies but i'm sticking to mamia now.

your better than me i figure they all go in the wash so i just use the facewashers for everything lol

Huggies nappies worked the best but where to expensive

Woolworths  Homebrand  kept ripping when ever my son stood up.

Babylove i found were to thin and wouldnt hold enough

Snugglers kept leaking

the ones i use the most and always recomend to new mothers is coles cheap brand unisex, they are bigger to hold that bit more.  plus the sizes go

Small- 6-9kg

large - 10 -15 kg

xlarge - 15 kg up

since iv been using these my son hasnt had a rash, leaky nappy or split nappy.  but then it all comes down to the parent

Nappies are different for every child though. I think its hard for boys cos there pee stays at the front where as with girls it distributes through tthe nappy pretty evenly, so the boys get full quicker.

I have a friend who uses ssnugglers and thats why i tried them, her daughter is fine with them where as ashton got the most blistere rash after the first couple of nappies. My cousin uses babylove and they work great and another cousin uses huggies and tehre good too, but they have girls.

That is just too funny!

I occasionally get snugglers - they have improved heaps. But I don't trust them overnight.

I have recently tried Sorbies (coles brand) they have day and night nappies in the same pack.  They were ok.

Whatever you buy, stock up when they are on sale.

i am using Huggies for my baby, she's almost 10 months now, and i used huggies since she was born untill now, i feel comfortable, and i feel that it's the best for my baby .

buti have a friend who was tellig me to use baby love she's using it to her baby and she said that it's good quality but i didn't try it yet ....

also I only use whipes for poos, if Katelyn just does a wee I clean her with a face cloth I also use face cloths in her nappies instead of liners. BUT i do have different face cloths for her nappies and for using in the bath.

Taylor I use babylove atm these work really well on him compared to Damian, and as we didn't buy them we didn't have much choice about having them.

pea pods are about 20 bucks each but obviously you reuse them, they are a pocket nappy they dont leak they dont ruin the environment and they dont need soaking.

natures babycare are about 30 dollars a packet they dont have bleach or chlorine in them and they are made out of corn so they break down and they dont cause nappy rash, they look like a normal disposable nappy but they are a bit slimmer and they dont hang.
