Advantages: Cost saving, environmentally sound, natural product next to bots! Disadvantages: Mio soft cover
I started using Bambinomio with my first child and now have a baby; both are in Bambinomios'. I originally looked around at great length prior to the birth and found the bambinomio range to be the best. I liked the miosoftcover as it is cotton like on the outside and waterproof on the inside. It also had some nice patterns on it!
The cotton prefolds themselves are not different to many on the market; rectangular in shape they fold into multiple layers and with a biodegradable paper liner that flushes down the loo that wraps around to collect solids. The difference is the waterproof covers that go around the prefolds.
There are three different covers and I have tried all three, this is been a bit of a road to discovery with my first born. The cover that is with the birth to potty pack and seemingly the most popular is ...
Advantages: eco-friendly, economical, no nappy rash Disadvantages: you need to keep on top of the laundry!
We have used these nappies for over a year now for our third child after using disposables for the first two. I went for BambinoMio because a) I felt very strongly that I wanted to be eco-friendly this time b) They had good consumer reviews- and I did a lot of research and c) I lived near a local stockist at the time, making it easy to get supplies and sample packs.
Basically, you have an outer nappy shell with velcro fastenings which looks a bit like a disposable. It has a waterproof inner and a cotton outer. You can wipe down the waterproof inner and reuse this part.
Then there is a rectangular cotton nappy that is several layers thick. You fold this and wrap a liner around it and place it in the shell. Don't be put off by the folding- it is literally two folds, nothing like the old Terry nappies. There are two different ways to ...
Advantages: Soft, seem to work well most of the time Disadvantages: Catch on rough skin, can roll up, small
As you may know from seeing other reviews of mine, hubby and I are on a continuing mission to find good, effective nappy liners to use with the "real" (as opposed to imaginary, har har) nappies our 19 month-old son wears. At this rate, I suspect we'll have potty trained him before we find the right ones... Here?s hoping that others will be able to benefit from our experimentation and research!
These nappy liners are quite small (about 8" x 4"), which means they fit neatly into the nappy. However, I feel they are actually too small. If your baby moves around a lot - and let's face it, they all do - the liner can move and end up not protecting the nappy from poo... (yes, it's another poo-based review - eat your dinner later instead!).
These have the exact same problem as the One Life liners - they are lovely and soft (again, they ...
